Ukulele, steel drums, dog house bass set the tone. Song about meeting your forever love on a beach and winning her over with your ukulele powers.

lyrics

Walking on the beach in Waikiki
Saw a pretty woman by the shining sea
I said "Would you like to come and dance with me?
She said, "There's just one thing that you gotta be.”

CHORUS
Ooo ooo ooo be an ukulele man
Ah ah ah be an ukulele man

I said, "Okay, I can really enjoy
Playing ukulele; it’s my cup of poi
She said, “You know how many times I’ve heard that before?”
I said, “Let’s go shopping, I can show you for sure.”

CHORUS
Ooo ooo ooo be an ukulele man
Ah ah ah be an ukulele man

BRIDGE:
We walked up to the music store
Ukuleles lined the wall
I took one down and played some chords
The girl said, “Ooo la la.”
Our destiny was plain to see
We spent the day in harmony
From Waikiki to Waimea Bay
We’ve been together ever since that day
Because I could always say

CHORUS x2

Many years have gone and she still dances with me
On the golden, sunny, sandy beach of Waikiki
The secret of our happiness is easy to see
There's just one thing that you gotta be

CHORUS
Ooo ooo ooo be an ukulele man
Ah ah ah be an ukulele man
Ooo ooo ooo be an ukulele man
Ah ah ah be an ukulele man
Ooo ooo ooo be an ukulele man
Ah ah ah be an ukulele man

This is Raggedy Edge's own Bob Farley's solo CD, very much like a Raggedy Edge CD, only a touch more raggedy and darker. Raggedy Edge
