HULA HOLIDAY

(Hula holla)
Hula holla, hula holla (hula holla)
Have a happy hula holiday

Hula holla, hula holla
Hula holla (yeah)

Used to be my holidays all came at 10 below
A Christmas wasn't Christmas without new Jack Frosty snow (yeah)
But since that time, I've learned that I'm more merry with a tan
The kind I find in my Hawaiian Winter Wonderland

No more icy holidays, it's toasty everyday
And now I drive a surfboard, not that one-horse open sleigh
But hey it really ain't that different, just our Christmas ain't white
Plus we do the hula holla every single night

*The hula holla (hula holla, hula holla)
The hula holla (hula holla, hula holla)
The hula holla (hula holla, hula holla)
The hula holla (hula holla) have a happy hula holiday (yeah)

Yeah Yeah oh
Yeah Yeah (heh heh)

Used to worry Santa couldn't find me way across the sea
Until I found he lives year-round on the beach in Waikiki
He spends his daytime surfin', tubin', thinkin' 'bout goin' pro
(And at night appears daily on ukulele with Don HoHoHo)

Kahau'eikeholahola ka'a, oni and a ikedailala via lalio
Kuakuoue aupaukono, falalalala lalala

That's right, Kris Kringle left the big time, fired up his sleigh and blew the cold
Took his honey where it's sunny, said (aloha, North Pole)
No more chimney-slidin', reindeer-ridin', Saint Nick just said (no)
He said (it's time to lei the Oahu way underneath the mistletoe)

* Repeat

(Whoa) ho ho ho ho
(Holoholo) on the first day of Christmas, my honey gave to me
(Pakalolo) a little grass shack and a condo by the sea
(Hana koko lele) and a partridge in a palm tree
(A-papa oom mau mau, HonoluLuau wah) Yeah

So if you're feeling chilly and you're lookin' for a tail to dwell
Do like Elvis, move your pelvis outta Heartbreak Hotel (that's right)
The King took his Blue Christmas on a Blue Hawai'i too
Then the wahines in bikinis (shook) and show him how to rock-a-hula

* Repeat

* Repeat

Have a happy (hula holla)
Book em, Danno (yeah)
