Lyrics


1. Blue Hawaï
(Robin / Rainger)

Night and you and blue Hawaii
The night is heavenly
And you are heaven to me
Lovely you and blue Hawaii
With all this loveliness
There should be love

Come with me while the moon is on the sea
The night is young and so are we
So are we
Dreams come true in blue Hawaii
And mine could all come true
This magic night of nights with you

Come with me while the moon is on the sea (the moon is on the sea)
The night is young and so are we
So are we
Dreams come true in blue Hawaii
And mine could all come true
This magic night of nights with you



2. Almost always true
(Fred Wise / Ben Weisman)

I was always
Baby I was always
Well almost always true to you

Met a pretty mademoiselle
Her poppa owned a small hotel
Oh, I was almost always true to you

I resisted though my arm was twisted
I was almost always true to you

I stayed away from drink and wine
Thought about you all the time
Oh, I was almost always true to you

Kept refusing
Don't jump to conclusions
I was almost always true to you

I would never grab like this
I would never steal a kiss
Oh, I was almost always true to you

I was almost always true to you



3. Aloha 'oe
(Queen Liliuokalani, Arr.by Elvis)

Ha `aheo `e ka ua i na pali
Ke nihi a `ela i ka nahele
E uhai ana paha i ka liko
Pua `ahiahi lehua o uka

(Proudly the rain on the cliffs
Creeps into the forest
Seeking the buds
And miniature lehua flowers of the uplands)

Hui:
Aloha `oe, aloha `oe
E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
One fond embrace, a ho `i a `e au
A hui hou aku

Chorus:
(Farewell to you, farewell to you
O fragrance in the blue depths
One fond embrace and I leave
To meet again)

`O ka hali `a aloha ka i hiki mai
Ke hone a `e nei i ku `u manawa
`O `oe no ka `u ipo aloha
A loko e hana nei

(Sweet memories come
Sound softly in my heart
You are my beloved sweetheart
Felt within)

Maopopo ku `u `ike i ka nani
Na pua rose o Mauna-wili
I laila ho `ohie na manu
Miki `ala i ka mani o ia pua

(I understand the beauty
Of rose blossoms at Mauna-wili
There the birds delight
Alert the beauty of this flower



4. No More
(Robertson / Blair)

No more, do I see the starlight caress your hair
No more, feel the tender kisses we used to share
I close my eyes and clearly my heart remembers
A thousand goodbyes could never put out the embers

Darling I love you so and my heart forever
Will belong to the memory of the love that we knew before
Please come back to my arms we belong together
Come to me let's be sweethearts again
And then let us part no more

No more, do I feel the touch of your hand on mine
No more, see the love light making your dark eyes shine
Oh how I wish I never had caused you sorrow
But don't ever say for us there is no tomorrow



5. Can't Help Falling in Love
(Hugo Peretti / Luigi Creatore / George Weiss)

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you

For I can't help falling in love with you



6. Rock-a-hula baby
(Wise / Weisman / Fuller)

(Rock-a-hula, Rock rock-a-hula
Rock-a-hula, Rock rock-a-hula
Rock-a-hula, Rock rock-a-hula
Rock-a-hula, Rock rock-a-hula
Rock-a-hula, Rock rock-a-hula
Rock-a-hula, Rock)

The way she moves her hips up to her finger tips
I feel I'm heaven bound
And when she starts to sway
I've gotta say: she really moves her grass around

Rock A-hula baby
rock A-hula baby gotta hula loo from Honolu
That's a rock-a-hula baby of mine

(Rock-a-hula, Rock rock-a-hula Rock-a-hula, Rock)

Although I love to kiss my little hula miss
I never get the chance
I wanna hold her tight
All through the night
But all she wants to do is dance

(Rock A-hula baby, rock. A-hula baby rock
A-hula baby rock, rock, rock, rock, rock
A-hula baby rock, A-hula baby rock
A-hula baby rock, rock, rock, rock)

Well a rock a-hula baby of mine



7. Moonlight swim
(Sylvia Dee / Ben Weisman)

Let's go on a moonlight swim
Far away from the crowd all alone upon the beach
Our lips and our arms close within each others reach
Will be
(Yes will be)
On a moonlight swim
(On a moonlight swim)

(Let's go on a moonlight swim
To the raft we can race
And for just a little while
I'll sit and pretend that you're on a desert isle
With me)

On a moonlight swim
(On a moonlight swim)

Though the air is cold with kisses oh so sweet (so sweet)
I'll keep you warm, so very warm
From your head to your feet

Let's go on a moonlight swim
We're in love and above there's a crazy gold balloon
That sits winkin' down and invitin' us to come on in (come on in)
On a moonlight swim

Though the air is cold with kisses oh so sweet
I'll keep you warm, so very warm
From your head to your feet

On a moonlight swim
On a moonlight swim



8. Ku-u-i-Po (Hawaiian Sweetheart)
(Peritti / Creatore / Weiss)

Ku-u-i-Po, I love you, more today
More today than yesterday
But I love you, less today
Less than I will tomorrow

See the sweet Hawaiian rose
See it blossom, see it grow
That's the story of our love
Ever since we said hello.

As the years go passing by (Aloha)
We'll recall our wedding day (Our wedding day)
I will be there by your side (Aloha)
You will always hear me say

Ku-u-i-Po, Ku-u-i-Po, you're my Hawaiian sweetheart
Ku-u-i-Po, Ku-u-i-Po, you're my Hawaiian sweetheart



9. Ito Eats
(words & music by Sid Tepper - Roy Bennett)

Ito eat like teeth are out of style
Ito eat like teeth are out of style
Ito eating all the while
Eat Ito eat all the night and the day
Eat Ito eat all the night and the day

Ito is an eating boy
He never get enough from fish and poi
He eat everything he don't care what
He even eat the shell from the coconut
Eat Ito eat all the night and the day
Eat Ito eat all the night and the day

Hey, Ito little faster
Ito little slower

Ito eat like teeth are out of style
Ito eat like teeth are out of style
When you say that stranger smile
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh



10. Slicin' sand
(Sid Tepper / Roy C. Bennett)

Take off your shoes
Put down your hair
Turn on the music and we'll get somewhere
Dance, dance, dance till you toes get tanned
We're gonna have us a ball on the beach
Slicin' sand

Hug me a heap, sway me a lot
We got a lotta ocean if it gets too hot
Oo-ee-oo baby take my hand
We'll have some real rockin' fun in the sun
Slicin' sand

Come baby, come
Let's dig some holes
You'll find it's heaven with sand on your soles

Slice to the left, slice to the right, slice down the middle
Baby hold me tight
Oo-ee-oo baby hold my hand
We'll have some real rockin' fun in the sun
Slicin' sand

We'll have some real rockin' fun in the sun
Slicin' sand



11. Hawaiian Sunset
(Tepper / Bennett)

Hawaiian sunset, peeping from the sea
Smiles and says Aloha to his sweetheart Hawaii
The drowsy islands, slumber one by one
Close their sleepy eyes say goodnight to the sun

Then Hawaii like millions of times before
Blossoms in her lovers arms once more
Too soon the sunrise will wake her from her sleep
So until tomorrow, sleep Hawaii sleep

So until tomorrow, sleep Hawaii sleep



12. Beach boy blues
(Tepper, Bennett)

I'm a poor Hawaiian beach boy
A long way, from the beach
'Cause someone shoved his face against my hand
Now I'm a kissin' cousin, to a ripe pineapple
I'm in the can

I was mindin' my own bus'ness
Drinkin' Daddy's juice
I swear I'll never touch that stuff again
Just like the pig before he gave his...
All at the luau
I'm...in the pen

Got those beach boy blues
Don't the time go slow?
Lonely beach boy blues
Only thirty days and ninety years to go

I wanna taste the honey
From my wahini's lips
I wanna be her ever-lovin' man
But I'm a kissin' cousin, to a ripe pineapple
I'm in the can

But I'm a kissin' cousin to a ripe pineapple

I'm in the can...



13. Island of love
(Tepper / Bennett)

Kauai, island of love

Lovely, princess of the islands
Kauai, island of love

Listen
Can't you hear her calling
Aloha, welcome my love

Her palm trees, gently do the hula
While her slaves, the waves rush in to kiss her shores
Heaven is another name for
Kauai, island of love

Heaven is another name for
Kauai, island of love
Kauai, island of love
Kauai, island of love



14. Hawaian wedding song
(King / Hoffman / Manning)

This is the moment I've waited for
I can hear my heart singing
Soon bells will be ringing

This is the moment
Of sweet aloha
I will love you longer than forever
Promise me that you will leave me never

Here and now dear
All my love I vow dear
Promise me that you will leave me never
I will love you longer than forever

Now that we are one
Clouds won't hide the sun
Blue skies of Hawaii smile on this our wedding day

I do
Love you
With all my heart



15. Steppin' Out Of Line
(Wise - Weisman - Fuller)

Well listen little lady, you're steppin' out of line
What's your hurry baby, you got a lot of time
Well that's not love you feel, it's only make believe
Watch out, you'll break the heart
Your wearing on your sleeve

Cheating with your kisses
You think you know it all
O where's it gonna get you, you're ridin' for a fall
Better slow it down, I see a danger sign
'Cause the way your steppin' 'round yeah
You're steppin' out of line
You're steppin' out of line

You're
Cheating with your kisses
You think you know it all
O where's it gonna get you, you're ridin' for a fall
Better slow it down, I see a danger sign
'Cause the way your steppin' 'round yeah
You're steppin' out of line
You're steppin' out of line
You're steppin' out of line
Girll, you're steppin' out of line
