Hey, Leah Leah Hey, Leah Leah Here I go From the hut to the boat to the sea for Leah Uh huh! I gotta go diving in the bay Gotta get a lot of oysters Find some pearls today To make a pretty necklace for Leah Leah I gotta go deep and find the ones just right I'll bet my Leah will be surprised tonight I'll place the pearls around the only girl for me Leah But something's wrong I cannot move around My leg is caught It's pulling me down But I'll keep my hands shut tight for if they find me They'll find the pearl for Leah And now it's over I'm awake at last Oh, heartaches and memories from the past It was just another dream about my lost love About Leah Hey, Leah Leah Hey, Leah Leah Here I go Back to sleep and in my dreams I'll be with Leah Leah Leah
