Verse:
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 full of peaches, Who bring their "ukes" along,
And in the glimmer of the moonlight, They love to sing this song;
 
Chorus:
If you like a Ukulele Lady, Ukulele Lady like a you.
If you like to linger where it's shady, Ukulele Lady linger too.
If you kiss a Ukulele Lady, While you promise ever to be true,
And she see another Ukulele Lady fool around with you.
Maybe she'll sigh, Maybe she'll cry,
Maybe she'll find somebody else, Bye and bye,
To sing to, When it's cool and shady, Where the tricky Wicki-Wackies woo.
If you like a Ukulele Lady, Ukulele Lady like a you.
