ARLO GUTHRIE - UKULELE LADY lyrics

rate me

by Richard Whiting & Gus Kahn

I saw the splendor of the moonlight

On Honolulu Bay

There's something tender in the moonlight

On Honolulu Bay

And all the beaches are filled with peaches

Who bring their ukes along

And in the glimmer of the moonlight

They love to sing this song

1:

If you like Ukulele Lady

Ukulele Lady like a'you

If you like to linger where it's shady

Ukulele Lady linger too

If you kiss Ukulele Lady

While you promise ever to be true

And she sees another Ukulele

Lady foolin' 'round with you

2:

Maybe she'll sigh (an awful lot)

Maybe she'll cry (and maybe not)

Maybe she'll find somebody else

By and by

To sing to when it's cool and shady

Where the tricky wicky wacky woo

If you like Ukulele Lady

Ukulele Lady like a'you

She used to sing to me by moonlight

On Honolulu Bay

Fond memories cling to me by moonlight

Although I'm far away

Some day I'm going, where eyes are glowing

And lips are made to kiss

To see somebody in the moonlight

And hear the song I miss

Repeat 1.

Repeat 2.
