Hawai'i

A cup of Kona coffee and we're on our way
They say that Kilauea's going off today
That's why I like Hawai'i

Nature running riot on the windward side
Leeward's bright and sunny and it's kinda dry
That's why I like Hawai'i

CHORUS:

Out in the middle of the deep blue sea
Three thousand miles from reality
Changing my direction doing what I please
Swaying to the Hula in an off shore breeze

The terrifying pipeline off a north shore reef
Total body sun tan on a black sand beach
That's why I like Hawai'i

The thirsty reaching fingers of the Banyan tree
Mynah birds singing in the canopy
That's why I like Hawai'i

REPEAT CHORUS:

Drinking like a tourist in Lahaina bars
Back roads beating up the rental cars
That's why I like Hawai'i

Coconut candy from a road side stand
Shave ice melting in my hungry hands
That's why I like Hawai'i
