My Little Grass Shack in Kealakekua, Hawaii

Hank Snow · The Singing Ranger, Vol. 3 [Bear Family (Germany)] [1994]

(Bill Cogswell - Tommy Harrison - Johnny Noble)



I want to go back to the little grass shack in Kealakekua Hawaii

I want to be with all the kanes and wahines that I used to know long ago

I can hear the old guitars a playing on the beach at Honaunau

I can hear the old Hawaiians saying komo mai no kaua i ka hale welakahao.



It won't be long till my ship will be sailing back to Kona

A grand old place that's always fair to see (yes siree)

Well I'm just a little Hawaiian 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 humuhumunukunukuapuaa go swimming by.
