Sittin' in a native hut, all alone and blue.

Sittin' in a native hut, wonderin' what to do.

Along came a native girl, did a native dance.

It was like a Paradise, put me in a trance.

Eb                C#             Eb            C#
Joined her in her dancin' spree, felt my spine atingle.
Eb                 C#           Eb                C#
Held her tight and close to me, Man, I'm glad I'm single.
Eb                 C#          Eb          C#          
Then she showed me what to do, first I was amazed.
Eb               C#           Eb          C#         
Soon I learned a step or two, put me in a daze.

D              C                 D                 C
Left her for a night, came back, bring 'em side by side.
D               C
A single pitch, last two steps,
D                C  
Now you're gonna glide.
D              C     D      D                C
Keep along the rythm track, girls be showin' how.
D                C         D     D                C
