[Verse 1]
Way out in the Pacific, up in Hawi Town
I got lost in your eyes, and your skin of golden brown
Dancin’ by the ocean in your grass skirt and your lei
My Hawaiian Girl Aloha Wau Ia Oe

My Hawaiian girl, my Hawaiian girl
You’re the sunshine of my day
You always bring a smile to my face
I’m happy in every way
My Hawaiian girl, a Polynesian pearl
All I wanna say
Is I love you
Aloha Wau Ia Oe

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
When I dream late at night
I don’t go very far
I’m walking with you, hand in hand
On the beach at Kauna'oa
Everything is perfect
Hangin’ loose as the palm trees sway
My Hawaiian girl
Aloha Wau Ia Oe

My Hawaiian girl, my Hawaiian girl
You’re the sunshine of my day
You always bring a smile to my face
I’m happy in every way
My Hawaiian girl, a Polynesian pearl
All I wanna say
Is I love you
Aloha Wau Ia Oe

When I came to Hawaii
I took a stroll down by the sea
I found a Polynesian pearl
That’s my Hawaiian girl

My Hawaiian girl, my Hawaiian girl
You’re the sunshine of my day
You always bring a smile to my face
I’m happy in every way
My Hawaiian girl, a Polynesian pearl
All I wanna say
Is I love you
Aloha Wau Ia Oe
My Hawaiian girl
Aloha Wau Ia Oe

[Verse 2]
She couldn’t hide her beauty with a baseball cap
Couldn’t help but shine with a heart like that
New York called when she turned 21
But she never forgot where she came from

I need a pretty little homegrown hometown girl
With a ribbon tying back those waterfall curls
I’ve been looking all over, all over the world
For a pretty little homegrown hometown girl

[Verse 3]
Her mamma’s mamma was born right here
And her roots run deeper than that old town square
She’s a good girl but she’s not uptight
She can rise and shine and she can hang all night

I need a pretty little homegrown hometown girl
With a ribbon tying back those waterfall curls
I’ve been looking all over, all over the world
For a pretty little homegrown hometown girl

[Verse 4]
She’s got an old soul, she’s the salt of the earth
When she gives her love she knows what it’s worth
There’s a lot of pretty girls out there to me
But there’s nothing like the one right across the street

I need a pretty little homegrown hometown girl
With a ribbon tying back those waterfall curls
I’ve been looking all over, all over the world
For a pretty little homegrown hometown girl

I need a pretty little homegrown hometown girl…

[Verse 1]
That second that I met her
It was like I found a treasure
And I swore I’d never let her get away
She’s what you call a keeper
And she’s made me a believer
The girls like that don’t come around every day

When you find one like mine
No, you don’t take for granted
That angel you’ve been handed
When she loves the way she loves
And you’re looking in those eyes
You’ll know it when you find
One like mine

[Verse 2]
When you find your one and only
And she lays her body on you
You’re kissing all that loneliness goodbye
After all those nights of looking

I stumbled on a good one
And the only question I had in my mind
Was where have you been all my life

When you find one like mine
No, you don’t take for granted
That angel you’ve been handed
When she loves the way she loves
And you’re looking in those eyes
You’ll know it when you find
One like mine

You’re gonna hit your knees
You’re gonna thank the Lord
You’re gonna know you found
The one you looking for

When she loves the way she loves
And you’re looking in those eyes
You’ll know it when you find
You’ll know it when you find
When you find one like mine
No, you don’t take for granted
That angel you’ve been handed
When she loves the way she loves
And you’re looking in those eyes
You’ll know it when you find
You’ll know it when you find
One like mine

Oh, one like mine
G Em F C G
One like mine

C Am F G (x2)

I want to go to the river bank
Right down the road we’ll take it slow
If I can get my truck to crank
I want to lay with you, there in the sand
Yeah it ought to be fun layin’ in the sun
Workin’ on my farmer’s tan

And we could be beach bums for awhile
No we don’t even need palm trees
Cause that’s just a matter of style
We could get away from everything
Yeah it’s gonna be just you and me
When the weekend comes
And we could be beach bums

[Verse 2]
When it get’s hot, let’s take a tip
I’ll be baptized by your angel eyes
And I’ll taste heaven on your lips
We might pack a tent, and spend the night
I’ll play your favorite song and you’ll sing along
Right there in the fire light

And we could be beach bums for awhile
No we don’t even need palm trees
Cause that’s just a matter of style
We could get away from everything
Yeah it’s gonna be just you and me
When the weekend comes
And we could be beach bums

No I don’t need no ocean breeze
I got the river and you here with me

And we could be beach bums for awhile
No we don’t even need palm trees
Cause that’s just a matter of style
We could get away from everything
Yeah it’s gonna be just you and me
When the weekend comes
And we could be beach bums for awhile
No we don’t even need palm trees
Cause that’s just a matter of style
We ought to get away from everything
Yeah it’s gonna be just you and me
When the weekend comes
And we could be beach bums

Beach Bums
We could be beach bums

[Verse 1]
She’s as pretty as South Georgia peaches
And as hot as any Tennessee June
She’s a treasure underneath that Carolina kudzu
She still outshines a Mississippi moon
When she walks into a room

Her kiss sure drives me crazy
I melt when she says my name
Just one touch can make this old heart sing
But it ain’t the blue sky in her blue eyes
It ain’t good looks at all
It’s the way she says I love you that makes me fall, y'all
In that sweet, soft, slow southern drawl

[Verse 2]
Her lips are redder than an Alabama sunset
Her hair is amber like Texas waves of grain
She’s a dirt road, barefoot ballerina, sweet heart
She’s gentle like a country summer rain
She’s pretty much everything

And her kiss sure drives me crazy
I melt when she says my name
Just one touch can make this old heart sing
But it ain’t the blue sky in her blue eyes
It ain’t good looks at all
It’s the way she says I love you that makes me fall, y'all
In that sweet, soft, slow southern drawl

Yeah her kiss sure drives me crazy
I melt when she says my name
Just one touch can make this old heart sing
But it ain’t the blue sky in her blue eyes
It ain’t good looks at all
It’s the way she says I love you that makes me fall, y'all
In that sweet, soft, slow southern drawl
In that sweet, soft, slow southern drawl

I wonder do you think about me, flying down the highway
Just you and the radio
I wonder if we were still together, if we would be happy
Like we were not that long ago

Would we be holding each other so close under the covers
If I hadn’t screwed it all up
Would it matter if I ever called you, would sparks fly

If I ever saw you
The truth is I may never know
But I wonder

[Verse 2]
I wonder if you have a husband, did you give him some children
Are you livin’ the American dream?
I wonder if there is a shoebox of pictures you’ve been hidin’
No one will ever see

Would we be holding each other so close under the covers
If I hadn’t screwed it all up
Would it matter if I ever called you, would sparks fly
If I ever saw you
The truth is I may never know

I’m probably crazy for thinkin’ these thoughts about how it could have been
It ain’t every day that I dig up the past, but every now and then

I wonder would we be holding each other so close under the covers
The truth is I may never know
But I wonder

I wonder
I wonder
Oh I wonder
I wonder
I wonder
