I am trying to keep it poly pop original tiki here not jimmy buffet or modern country schlock

So far all i got is Marty Robbins Devil Woman or Junior Brown Hillbilly Hula Gal/Coconut Island

Buddy Knox Hula Love?

I know Junior is kinda neo country but any more old school tiki country ideas would be appreciated-i feel like i am forgetting some obvious ones but google only gives you the modern country trop rock crap-ola

Lots of examples on this thread although many may be considered more Rockabilly than Classic Country...
