Well, A Cherokee chief as he dances along
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

A well a hey-ho-a-lina wup-wup a-wittena-yea

But he keeps on shaking that tomohawk
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
And he keeps on singin' so big and proud
A now Hey-ho-a-lina

And he keeps on sittin' singing nuven-yo
