OK. The only authority I have for this is a poster on the chatboard at IMDB. I tried to link to the post but it wasn't having it, so by the magic of copy & paste (and without any warranty) all together now:

Who’s this Hula hana, of kamana whala hula bay, she will hula when you have a lovely gift she wants, you’ll hear her say, bring me a pineapple that doesn't sting a bird that swims a fish that sings, I wanna I really wanna, bring me a volcano that blows up all the molten jama and a blue banana,
I canna canna bring me a pineapple that doesn't sting a bird that swims a fish that sings, I wanna I really wanna,
bring me a volcano that blows up all the molten jama and a blue banana, I canna canna and you can wackle all you wanna, while I hula all the day away, and you can wackle all you wanna, while I hula all the day away,
All the boys of okakokanoka island, gather all the gifts that hula hana asks, they have combed their island home, fulfilling each one, and its worth it when they watch her shake her grass, three, four, five
Bring me a gentle breeze that I can keep, an ocean that’s oh so deep, I wanna I really wanna,
she will hula when you have a lovely gift she wants, you’ll hear her say, bring me a pineapple that doesn't sting a bird that swims a fish that sings, I wanna I really wanna,
bring me a volcano that blows up all the molten jama and a blue banana, I canna canna
and you can wackle all you wanna, you can wackle while I walk away,
and you can wackle all you wanna, you can wackle while I walk away, away, away, away!

From Dirty Dancing, sung by Baby's sister Lisa:
Who's this hula hana, of Kamana Whala Hula Bay?
She will hula when you have a lovely gift she wants, you'll hear her say,
Bring me a pineapple that doesn't sting a bird that swims a fish that sings,
I wanna, I really wanna,
Bring me a volcano that blows up all the molten jama and a blue banana,
I canna canna,
Bring me a pineapple that doesn't sting a bird that swims a fish that sings,
I wanna, I really wanna,
Bring me a volcano that blows up all the molten jama and a blue banana,
I canna canna,
And you can wackle all you wanna, while I hula all the day away,
And you can wackle all you wanna, while I hula all the day away,
All the boys of Okakokanoka island, gather all the gifts that hula hana asks,
They have combed their island home, fulfilling each one,
And its worth it when they watch her shake her grass, three, four, five...
Bring me a gentle breeze that I can keep, an ocean that's oh so deep,
I wanna, I really wanna,
She will hula when you have a lovely gift she wants, you'll hear her say,
Bring me a pineapple that doesn't sting a bird that swims a fish that sings,
I wanna, I really wanna,
Bring me a volcano that blows up all the molten jama and a blue banana,
I canna canna
And you can wackle all you wanna, you can wackle while I walk away,
And you can wackle all you wanna, you can wackle while I walk away, away, away, away!
