Mama's Mu`umu`u - Gene Burdette

 
Verse:
Some slaves of fashion bend the knee
To styles from gay Paree
While others bow to movie stars
The Czars of lingerie
But there's a hefty mama
Down in Honolulu
She`s set the fashion mob agog
With her brand new mu`umu`u gown
 
Chorus 1:
Oh, you gotta see Mama's u`i nui mu`umu`u
When she's swinging along
The beach at Waikiki
It's the biggest attraction
Down in Honolulu
Because its loaded with her personality
Mama's mu`um`u's like a nightgown
With a bulge that's out of date
But she struts like Miss Hawai`i
At the age of sixty eight
Yes, you gotta see mama`s u`i nui mu`umu`u
It's the super duper drooper of the year
 
Chorus 2:
Oh, you gotta see Mama's u`i nui mu`umu`u
When she's doing the hula
Hula here and there
Mama's mu`umu`u is driving
All the women coo-coo
'Cause it's the answer to a two-way girdle's prayer
When you're starving on a diet
And you'd like to eat a horse
Just take cover in a mu`umu`u
And let nature take its course
Yes, you gotta see mama`s u`i nui mu`umu`u
It's the dapper flapper wrrapper of the year
