He does an Indian boogie to a white man's song
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
"Hey-ho-a-lina"
A well a "hey-ho-a-lina wup-wup a-wittena-yea"
Well, he dances over here and he dances over there
And he keeps on a dancin' everywhere
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"
"Hey-ho-a-lina"
A well a "hey-ho-a-lina wup-wup a-wittena-yea"
Well, he dances on the hill and he dances on the rock
But he keeps on shaking that tomahawk
Singin' "Hey-ho-a-lina"

A well a "hey-ho-a-lina wup-wup a-wittena-yea"
Well, he sings to the hills and he sings to the clouds
