Keep Your Eyes on the Hands - Burl Ives
Whenever you're watching
A hula girl dance
You gotta be careful
You're tempting romance
Don't keep your eyes on her hips
Her naughty hula hips
Keep your eyes on the hands
Remember she's telling
A story to you
Her opu is swaying
But don't watch the view
Don't concentrate on the swing
It doesn't mean a thing
Keep your eyes on the hands
She goes around the island
Swinging hips so tantalizing
Keep your eyes where they belong
Because the hula has a feeling
That will send your senses reeling
It makes a weak man strong
Your eyes are revealing
You're fooling no one
No use in concealing
You're having some fun
But if you're too
Young to date
Or over ninety-eight
Keep your eyes on the hands
She goes around the island
Swinging hips so tantalizing
Keep your eyes where they belong
Because the hula has a feeling
That will send your
Senses reeling
It makes a weak man strong
Your eyes are revealing
You're fooling no one
No use in concealing
You're having some fun
But if you're too
Young to date
Or over ninety-eight
Keep your eyes on the hands
They tell the story
Keep your eyes
On her hands
