Oh we're [G]going to a hu-ki-lau,
Huki huki huki huki huki [D7]hu-ki-lau.
Ev'ry-[Am]body loves a [D7]hu-ki-lau,
Where the lau-lau is the kau-kau at the [G]hu-ki-lau.
We'll [E7]throw our nets out into the sea
And [A7]all the ama-ama come-a swimming to me
Oh we're [G]going to a [E7]hu-ki-lau
[D7]huki huki huki huki hu-ki-[G]lau
{eoc}
What a [G]wonderful day for fishing
In the old Hawaiian [D7]way
All the [Am]hu-ki-lau nets are [D7]swishing
Down in [A7]old Laie [D7]Bay
{soc}
Oh we're [G]going to a hu-ki-lau,
Huki huki huki huki huki [D7]hu-ki-lau.
Ev'ry-[Am]body loves a [D7]hu-ki-lau,
Where the lau-lau is the kau-kau at the [G]hu-ki-lau.
We'll [E7]throw our nets out into the sea
And [A7]all the ama-ama come-a swimming to me
Oh we're [G]going to a [E7]hu-ki-lau
Huki [D7]huki huki huki
A [D7]huki huki huki
A [D7]huki huki huki hu-ki-[G]lau
{eoc}
