Hoochie Koochie Henry From Hawaii by Mitchell Torok Lyrics

[Chorus]
A hoochie koochie Henry from Hawaii
He dances hoochie koochie in the sand
On the beach you wakiki, and eat the coconut a-tree
He does a hoochie koochie dance to beat the band

[Verse 1]
In old Hawaii, and eat the spreadin' coconut tree
There lives a gay lad whose heart is free
He's got no money, still he owns the world
He's got his grass a-clippers ready
For the hula-hula girl

[Chorus]
Oh hoochie koochie Henry from Hawaii
A dances hoochie koochie in the sand
On the beach you wakiki, and eat the coconut a-tree
He does a hoochie koochie dance to beat the band

[Verse 2]
In old Hawaii, he dances out on the shore
And the brown skin natives all cry for more
He plays his guitar Hawaiian style
The melody that he's playin' drives the islanders wild
[Chorus]
Oh hoochie koochie Henry from Hawaii
A dances you to koochie in the sand
On the beach you wakiki, and eat the coconut a-tree
He does a hoochie koochie dance to beat the band

[Verse 3]
In old Hawaii, when the sun is sinkin' so low
And the U.S. steamer, loads up to go
He sings his love song to the girls on deck
They swim right back to the island
Just to hug him by the neck

[Chorus]
Oh hoochie koochie Henry from Hawaii
A dances hoochie koochie in the sand
On the beach you wakiki, and eat the coconut a-tree
He does a hoochie koochie dance to beat the band

[Verse 4]
When the tropical moon beams out over the sea
And lonely hearts long for company
He rids the island of all it's blues
He gets his kicks from a-drinkin' ice coconut a-juice

[Chorus]
So hoochie koochie Henry from Hawaii
A dances hoochie koochie in the sand
On the beach you wakiki, and eat the coconut a-tree
He does a hoochie koochie dance to beat the band
