            Let's Talk Dirty in Hawaiian
Tabbed By Bfolkers
D
I packed my bags and bought myself a ticket
                              A
For the land of the tall palm tree
                                D
Aloha Old Milwaukee, Hello Waikiki
I just stepped down from the airplane
                           G
When I thought I heard her say
                     D
Waka waka nuka nuka, waka waka nuka nuka
A                D    A
Would you like a lei? Eh?
[Chorus]
D
Let's talk dirty in Hawaiian
              A
Whisper in my ear
Kicka poo ka maka wa wah wahini
                        D
Are the words I long to hear
Lay your coconut on my tiki
                           G
What the hecka mooka mooka dear
                      D
Let's talk dirty in Hawaiian
        A               D
Say the words I long to hear
D
It's a ukelele Honolulu sunset
                           A
Listen to the grass skirts sway
Drinking rum from a pineapple
                D
Out on Honolulu Bay
The steel guitars all playing
                             G
While she's talking with her hands
                     D
Gimme gimme oka doka make a wish and wanta polka
A             D     A
Words I under stand
[Chorus]
D
I boughta lota junka with my moola
                              A
And sent it to the folks back home
I never had the chance to dance the hula
                      D
I guess I should have known
When you start talking to the sweet wahini
                         G
Walking in the pale moon light
                      D
Oka doka what a setta knocka rocka sis boom bocas
A              D     A
Hope I said it right
[Chorus]
