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 guitars a-playing on the beach at Hoonaunau
I can hear Hawaiians saying:
"Komo mai no kāua i ka hale 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 fish and poi
I want to go back to my little grass shack in Kealakekua, Hawaii
Where the Humuhumunukunukuapuaa goes swimming by

It won't be long 'til my ship will be sailing back to Kona
A grand old place that's always fair to see
You're telling me
We're just little Hawaiians and homesick girls
We want to go back and dive for pearls
I want to go back to my shack
