Elvis Presley - Queenie Wahine's Papaya Lyrics

Elvis Presley Lyrics

"Queenie Wahine's Papaya"
(from "Paradise, Hawaiian Style" soundtrack)

She sells sea shells by the seashore
But I know a gal who sells so much more

Queenie Wahine's papaya rates higher
Than pineapple, pumpkin or poi
Please pick her papaya, put Queenie Wahine
In perfect perpetual joy

Though some people's palates prefer pickled salads
Plum pudding, pink popcorn, peach pie
Oh, Queenie's papaya, you'll truly desire
When that Queenie Wahine passes by

Queenie Wahine's papaya rates higher
Than pineapple, pumpkin or poi
Please pick her papaya, put Queenie Wahine
In perfect perpetual joy

Though some people's palates prefer pickled salads
Plum pudding, pink popcorn, peach pie
Oh, Queenie's papaya you'll truly desire
When that Queenie Wahine passes by

Queenie Wahine's papaya rates higher
Than pineapple, pumpkin or poi
Please pick her papaya, put Queenie Wahine
In perfect perpetual joy

Though some people's palates prefer pickled salads
Plum pudding, pink popcorn, peach pie
Oh, Queenie's papaya you'll truly desire
When that Queenie Wahine passes by
