Lyrics

[Verse 1]
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
[Verse 2]
Mama's in the kitchen cookin' dinner real nice
Beef stew on the stove, lomi salmon with the ice
We eat and drink and we sing all day
Kanikapila in the old Hawaiian way
[Verse 3]
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
[Verse 4]
We go grandma's house on the weekend, clean yard
If we no go, grandma gotta work hard
You know, my grandma, she like the poi real sour, hoo
I love my grandma every minute, every hour
[Verse 5]
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
[Verse 6]
Mama's in the kitchen cooking dinner real nice
Beef stew on the stove, lomi salmon with the ice
We eat and drink and we sing all day
Kanikapila in the old Hawaiian way
[Verse 7]
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
[Verse 8]
From where?
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
From who?
From the mountain to the ocean, from the windward to the leeward side
Aloha
