Mae West: Hula Hips

Though it's unclear who wrote the "MAE WEST HULA," this amusing song was certainly in circulation by 1940 — — seventy years ago. For instance, a New Jersey newspaper, Red Bank Register [on Thursday, 14 November 1940] mentioned it along with a number of Hawaiian themed numbers as currently enjoying great popularity.
