RED OPU
© 1935 Lyrics & Music: R. Alex Anderson

F //// C7////
What am I going to do For my red opu
F//// C7////
It's so very sore I don't know what to do
F // F7 // Bb // Bbmin//
Listen my little sisters, just look at all my blisters
F //// G7 // C7//
Let them be a warning to you

F//// C7////
Yesterday my steamer docked at half past nine
F//// C7////
The sun was shining bright and oh, the weather was fine
F // F7 // Bb // Bbmin//
So I lay out on the beach 'til it was time to dine
F //// G7 / C7 / F/ E7/
That's how I got my red o- pu

A//// Aº////
All the pretty little girls were laying around
A //// E7 // A//
Getting a suntan, so I thought I'd get one too
A//// Aº //// A////
Out on the beach I play my uku lele, getting a suntan
E7 //// A // C7//
That was not the thing to do

F//// C7////
Oh what am I going to do For my red opu
F//// C7////
It's so very sore I don't know what to do
F // F7// Bb // Bbmin//
I guess the only way's to spend an hour every day
F//// G7// C7/ F/
Just oiling up my red o -pu
