Lyrics
1. “Honikau, a wiki wiki”
Sweet brown maiden said to me
As she gave me language lessons
On the beach at Waikiki
2. “Honikau, a wiki wiki”
She then said and smiled in glee
But she would not translate for me
On the beach at Waikiki
3. “Honikau, a wiki wiki”
She repeated playfully
Oh those lips were so inviting
On the beach at Waikiki
4. “Honikau, a wiki wiki”
She was surely teasing me
So, I caught that maid and kissed her
On the beach at Waikiki
5. “Honikau, a wiki wiki
You have learned it perfectly
Don’t forget what I have taught you”
Said the maid at Waikiki
