Lately I been thinkin about my younger days
When I was a young man livin in Hawai'i nei
Life wasn't easy, but its much harder now
People gettin crazy, I wish we could go back some how
Remember when the children play outside and we didn't have to worry, didn't have to worry
Remember when we used to take our time and we didn't have to hurry, didn't have to hurry
Remember when we used to fall in love none of this one night stuff
Its so tuff how everything has changed yet I remember the good old days
And I remember when our keiki used to play
But now its not safe even in your back yard, aue
We got to love one another all my sisters and brothers
Gotta make this world a better place for you and for me and our keiki
Remember when the children play outside and we didn't have to worry, didn't have to worry
Remember when we used to take our time and we didn't have to hurry, we didn't have to hurry
Remember when we used to fall in love none of this one night stuff, one night stuff
Its so tuff how everything has changed yet I remember the good old days
Boy tell um the story...
When I was just a young boy I would cruise around the place and my muddah neva worry cause we knew all the faces
Aunty ova hea and my uncle ova dea neva need to watch money cause kokua all share
Malama take care cause ohana is family
We play in da back yard Waipio valley had me
Thinkin bout the words that Uncle Waltah say, cause RSP was just a kid in da good old days
Remember when the children play outside, remember when the children could play outside and we didn't have to worry, didn't have to worry
Remember when we used to take our time, our time and we didn't have to hurry, didn't have to hurry
Remember when we used to fall in love, in love none of this one night stuff, none of this one night stuff
Its so tuff how everything has changed yet, has changed yet I remember the good old days
I remember, I remember the good old days
Say I remember, I remember the good old days
Do you remember, I remember the good old days
The good old days
