I HAD TO LOVA AND LEAVA ON THE LAVA
(R. Alex Anderson)
Ray Kinney & His Hawaiians - 1939


I had to lova and leava on the lava
On the slopes of Haleakala
She came from Kula, and did a wicked hula
On the slopes of Haleakala

Her dance volcanic
Would throw me in a panic
I thought the girl would slip a hip too far

Her hula motion would rock the mighty ocean
At the foot of Haleakala

So there I'd lova and leava on the lava
On the slopes of Haleakala
The kid from Kula who did the hottest hula
Ever known to Haleakala
