作词 : Davies
I won a competition in a little column in my local paper
So I packed my bags and flew across the sea all on my local paper
I sailed to 
Hawaii in the 
U.S.A.I’m just an 
English boy who won a holiday in 
WaikikiI didn’t realize it was commercialized when 
I unpacked my cases
Because a genuine 
Hawaii ukulele cost me 30 guineas
And even when 
I’m swimming 
I have to pay
I’m just an 
English boy who won a holiday in 
Waikiki, oh yeah, yeah
Across the coral sands 
I saw a hula hula dancer, looking pretty
I asked her where she came from and she said to me
I come from 
New York City and my mother is 
Italian and my dad’s a 
GreekI’m just an 
English boy who won a holiday in 
WaikikiIt’s a hooka, hooka on the shiny briny on a wake a hola
And in a little shack they had a little sign that said 
Coca ColaAnd even all the grass skirts were 
PVCI’m just an 
English boy who won a holiday in 
Waikiki, oh yeah, yeah
In Waikiki, in 
Waikiki
