Hawaii

I’ll take another cold beer from you, brother
Got a story I could tell ya
Could you drop a pink umbrella in my High Life?
And make it look like a Mai Tai
I’ll paint you a palm tree picture
Couple fools in paradise
Swept up in the blue, we
We’re living life in a movie
Just like Elvis and Priscilla, yeah, the both of us
Drinking pineapple rum out of a coconut
By the ocean, happy as a ukulele
Yeah, that rainbow we were under
Sometimes I wonder why we
Ever left Hawaii
Back on the mainland
Things ain’t the same, man
Wish wе could go back to island time
We had a plan to sell bamboo and chimеs
At a roadside souvenir stand
We had it all in the palm of our hands
But it slipped right through like sand in Waimea Bay
We shoulda stayed
Swept up in the blue, we
We’re living life in a movie
Just like Elvis and Priscilla, yeah, the both of us
Drinking pineapple rum out of a coconut
By the ocean, happy as a ukulele
Yeah, that rainbow we were under
Sometimes I wonder why we
Ever left Hawaii
Swept up in the blue, we
We’re living life in a movie
Just like Elvis and Priscilla, yeah, the both of us
Drinking pineapple rum out of a coconut
By the ocean, happy as a ukulele
Yeah, that rainbow we were under
Sometimes I wonder why we
Ever left Hawaii
Ever left Hawaii
