G                                         D7
Oh we're going to a hukilau. A huki huki huki huki hukilau.

Everybody loves a hukilau, where the lau lau is the kau kau at the big luau.
   E7                                    A7
We throw our nets right into the sea and all the ama ama come a-swimmin' to 
             
me.
         G          E7         D7                 G

D7                                         A7       D7
All the hukilau nets are swishing, down in old Laie Bay.
