The Old Hawaiian Way

When the sun begins to rise in the great eastern sky

And the evening stars go hiding from the day

Oh, the sand and the sea, they come a-callin' to me

They say good morning in the old Hawaiian way

As my spirit's takin' flight in the dawn's early-light

See the seagulls and the dolphins, how they play

Like a pearl on a string or a bird on the wing

It's good morning in the old Hawaiian way

Aloha, aloha

Puka shells and rain

Sweetest sugar cane

In the morning light you will surely see

Aloha, aloha

Watch the gentle breeze

Hula through the leaves

There's no place that l'd rather be

Hear the palms begin to sway as they're startin' their day

And a golden rainbow reaches 'cross the sky

Lovely flowers for your lei, and their fragrant bouquet

Say good morning in the old Hawaiian way

When l'm thinking of home and my thoughts start to roam

I can hear the ocean callin' me to pray

In the pineapple sun that's the way to have fun

Say good morning in the old Hawaiian way

Aloha, aloha

Puka shells and rain

Sweetest sugar cane

In the morning light you will surely see

Aloha, aloha

Watch the gentle breeze

Hula through the leaves

There's no place that l'd rather be

Aloha, aloha

Puka shells and rain

Sweetest sugar cane

In the morning light you will surely see

Aloha, aloha

Watch the gentle breeze (Aloha, aloha)

Hula through the leaves (Aloha, aloha)

There's no place that l'd rather be

(Aloha, aloha)

(Aloha, aloha)

(Aloha, aloha)
