My Little Grass Shack in Kealakekua, Hawaii

My Little Grass Shack in Kealakekua, Hawaii
(Bill Cogswell, Tommy Harrison and Johnny Noble)

I want to go back to my little grass shack in Kealakekua, Hawaii.
I want to be with all the kanes and wahines that I knew long ago.
I can hear old guitars a-playing on the beach at Hoonaunau
I can hear the Hawaiians saying, ""Komomai no kaua ikahale welakahao.""

It won't be long 'til my ship will be sailing back to Kona
A grand old place that's always fair to see.
I'm just a little Hawaiian and a homesick Island boy,
I want to go back to my fish and poi,

I want to go back to my little grass shack in Kealakekua, Hawaii.
Where the Humuhumu, Nukunuku a puaa goes swimming by.
Where the Humuhumu, Nukunuku a puaa goes swimming by.

I want to go.....(repeat all)"
