You've been working so hard
You need a vacation for the day
So I built a little paradise in the back yard
Where the breeze makes the cardboard palm trees sway
The neighbor girls with hula skirts a-flyin'
And the punch is genuine Hawaiian
CHORUS:
Come to Hawaii, come to Hawaii,
Come to Hawaii with me
A wading pool is the clear blue ocean
A sheet for the white Hawaiian sand
Bring your swimming suit in case you get the notion
We'll eat pineapple fresh from the can
And if you close your eyes and dream
You'll be amazed at just how real it seems
CHORUS
We hear our Mama call over the ocean
We know that it's time to come in
She says "supper's ready now get your bodies in motion"
And we know that our trip is at an end
But as we see the sun go down
It casts a tropical hue over our little town
CHORUS
