Self Portrait

Teresa Bright Self Portrait Lyrics
1.Hawaiian Vamp

Lyricist:Lukens Bob, Noble John Avery

Down in Honolulu
Beside the sea
A naughty strain
Is haunting me

Just a dreamy hula
That sweet refrain
Just makes me quiver, shiver and shake
And then you do it again

That haunting hula glide
That creepy sneaky slide
They're dancing night and day
To drive their blues away

If on a moonlight night
You got that hula notion
Just hold your feet down tight
And quiver like that ocean

Anita fair to see
She lives in Waikiki
It's like that rippling tide
She does that hula glide

Down in Honolulu
Beside the sea
A naughty strain
Is haunting me

Just a dreamy hula
That sweet refrain
Just makes me quiver, shiver and shake
And then you do it again

That haunting hula glide
That creepy sneaky slide
They're dancing night and day
To drive their blues away

If on a moonlight night
You got that hula notion
Just hold your feet down tight
And quiver like that ocean

Anita fair to see
She lives in Waikiki
It's like that rippling tide
She does that hula glide

Down in Honolulu
Beside the sea
A naughty strain
Is haunting me

Just a dreamy hula
That sweet refrain
Just makes me quiver, shiver and shake
And then you do it again


2.He Aloha No O Honolulu

Lyricist:Lot Kauwe

He aloha no 'o Honolulu
I ka ua Kûkalahale

'Au a'e nei mahope

Kau mai ana mamua
Ka malu 'ulu a'o Lele
Kukui 'a'â mau
Pio 'ole I ke Kaua'ula

'Au aku I ke kai loa
Oni mai ana 'o 'Upolu
Ho'okomo Iâ Mahukona
Ka makani 'Ã'pa'apa'a

E wiki 'oe 'apa nei
Eia a'e 'o Kawaihae
Ho'ohaehae Nâulu
Ka makani Ku'ehu 'ale

Ka hao a ka Mûmuku
Poho pono nâ pe'a heke
'O ka heke a'o nâ Kona
I ke kai mâ'oki'oki

Ki'ina ke koi'I koi

Ha'ina mai ka puana
'O ka heke no nâ Kona
No Kona ke kai malino
Kaulana I ka lehulehu
