KNOCK-KNEED NAPUA FROM KAILUA
(Prince Kawohi / Steve Graham)
Prince Kawohi - 1955


They call her knock-kneed Napua from Kailua
She's the talk of Lanikai
When she does the hula over in Kailua
You can hear them cheer in Molokai

She dances on the sands 
And her hula hands just seem to say
Hold on to your kane and don't let him go 
Or I might steal him away

So one day knock-kneed Napua from Kailua
Took a trip to Waikiki
Television beckoned, "This is it," she reckoned,
"Here's my chance to dance on TV"

She shook and rolled her eyes
Then they realized their big mistake
She ami'd here and she ami'd there
Ev'ry camera quivered and quaked

So they said "knock-kneed Napua from Kailua
Go back to dear old Lanikai
Then you can do your hula over in Kailua"
Underneath the blue Hawaiian sky
Underneath the blue Hawaiian sky
