[1st verse:] You know my Uncle Jeremiah Who disappeared a month ago We got a letter from Hawaii And I declare, my uncle's there The atmosphere set him on fire It simply went right to his head What do you think he wrote In his little note? This is what he said [Refrain:] I'm down in Honolulu looking them over I'm down in Honolulu living in clover Try and guess the way they dress No matter what you think it is, it's even less Their language is hard to understand because it's so tricky I've got them teaching me to say "wicky wicky" I don't know what it means but it's the best that ever was And if it means just what I think it does I'll be in Honolulu looking them over for a long, long time [2nd verse:] My brother said "It's very nifty Our Uncle's got the right idea" Although my brother's very thrifty He sent a wire to Jeremiah He said "I'll go you fifty fifty With ev'ry Hula girl you see" My brother nearly died Uncle just replied Please don't bother me
