Lyrics

I won a competition in a little column in my local paper
So I packed my bags and flew across the sea all on my local paper
I sailed to hawaii in the u.s.a
I'm just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki

I didn't realize it was commercialized when I unpacked my cases
Because a genuine hawaii ukulele cost me 30 guineas
And even when I'm swimming I have to pay
I'm just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki
Oh yeah, yeah

Across the coral sands I saw a hula hula dancer, looking pretty
I asked her where she came from and she said to me
"I come from new york city
And my mother is italian
And my dad's a greek."
I'm just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki

It's a hooka hooka on the shiny briny on a wake a hola[?]
And in a little shack they had a little sign that said coca cola
And even all the grass skirts were pvc
I'm just an english boy who won a holiday in waikiki
Oh yeah, yeah

In waikiki
In waikiki
