Ho'okahi Sunday afternoon
There goes my tutu e
She's trucking on down to town
On the ala nui kapakahi way

She was singing an old melody
Of 'Anapau,' 'e liliu e'
Tutu will show you how to do-oo
The hula ami oni oni e

Tutu e ina ka'awa e
That's the drink of the South Sea Islands e
U ona e tutu e-e
And now she's doing the hula rum boogie e

Tutu is going home now
To her hale by the kapakahi way
Ha'ina 'ia mai kapuana
That's the mele of my tutu e

Tutu, tutu e
