Hula Lolo - by Agnes Auld & Norman Hendershot

 

When you hear sweet music, soft and low
You can swing it right, swing it left
Swing all around
And do the hula lolo
 
 
There's a sweet brown maiden, whose penei no
She can swing it right, swing it left
Swing all around
And do the hula lolo
 
 
Chorus:
When the moon is shining in Hawai`i
You can dance to the strains of
Alekoki, Anapau, Lili`u E
 
 
If you don't believe me, you can go
Where they swing it right, swing it left
Swing all around
And do the hula lolo
Aggie Auld

A foremost exponent of the hula, she was identifed with Lovely Hula Hands, the R.A. Anderson composition. Hula Lolo was written in collaboration with her second husband, Norman Hendershot.
