VERSE 1
[G]Whenever you're watching a hula girl [|][G]dance                      
You gotta be [|][G]careful, you're [Bbdim7]tempting [|][D7]ro-mance  
Don't keep your [|][D7]eyes on her hips, Her [|][D7]naughty hula hips[|]
[A7]Keep your eyes on the [|][D7]hands
Remember she's [|][G]telling a story to [|][G]you
Her opu is [|][G]swaying, but don't watch the [|][D7]view
Don't [|][D7]concen-trate on the swing
It [|][D7]doesn't mean a thing [|][A7]keep your [D7]eyes on the [|][G]hands

CHORUS
And when she [|][G7]goes around the island, Swinging [|][G7]hips so tantalizing
Just [|][C]keep your eyes where they be[|][C]long, Because the [|][A7]hula has a feeling
That’ll [|][A7]send your senses reelin, It [|][D7]makes a weak man [|][D7]strong

VERSE 2
Your eyes are re[|][G]vealing, You're fooling no [|][G]one, no use in con[|][G]cealing
You're [Bbdim7]having some [|][D7]fun but if you're [|][D7]too young to date, Or [|][D7]over ninety-eight [|]
[A7]keep your [D7]eyes on the [|][G]hands[Gm][|][A7] [D7] [|]

CHORUS 2
And when she [|][G7]goes around the island, Swinging [|][G7]hips so tantalizing
Just [|][C]keep your eyes where they be[|][C]long, And when the [|][A7]grass it goes a swishing
Keep your [|][A7]head and don't go wishing [|][D7]you'd like to mow the [|][D7]lawn
