Koa Tree

Plant me a Koa Tree, don't you cry for me
You touched all the people with your music, ahhhh
Makes it so much noise, ooohhh
You brought the people of Hawai'i, to--ge--ther
With your magical Hawaiian voice
Thought your no longer here, ahhhh
You left behind a legacy, ooohhh
We all know a-bout your dream
So plant a Koa Tree
The branches that stand out, ahhh
Touch each Hawaiian, ooohhh
And as the roots grow deeper in-to the ground
They hold up everyone
