G
Whenever you're watching a hula girl dance
BbDim D7
You gotta be careful, you're tempting ro-mance
Am
Don't keep your eyes on her hips
D7
Her naughty hula hips
A7 D7
Keep your eyes on the hands
G
Remember she's telling a story to you
G BbDim D7
Her opu is swaying, but don't watch the view
Am
Don't concen-trate on the swing
D7 A7 D7 G
It doesn't mean a thing keep your eyes on the hands
G7
And when she goes around the island
Swinging hips so tantalizing
C G7+5 C
Just keep your eyes where they be-long
A7
Because the hula has a feeling
That’ll send your senses reelin
D7
It makes a weak man strong
G
Your eyes are re-vealing
You're fooling no one no use in concealing
BbDim D7 Am
You're having some fun but if you're too young to date
D7 A7 D7 G
Or over ninety-eight keep your eyes on the hands
G7
And when she goes around the island
Swinging hips so tantalizing
C G7+5 C
Just keep your eyes where they be-long
C A7
And when her grass skirt goes a swishin
Keep your head and don’t go wishin
D7
You’d like to mow the lawn
G
Your eyes are re-vealing
You're fooling no one no use in concealing
BbDim D7 Am
You're having some fun but if you're too young to date
D7 A7 D7 G
Or over ninety-eight keep your eyes on the hands
