Coconut Man

(album: Sacred Island - 1998)

Saw a sign of you, yes, I understand
You're trying to make a fool out of me
Oh, yes I know, yes, I understand
You're trying to make a fool out of me

Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
Talking about the Hawaiian man
Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
Talking about the Fijian man

Bula vinaka, moce vinaka too
Listen down in Fijiland
Ni sa bula, ni sa yandra too
Singing down in Fijiland

Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
Talking about the Hawaiian man
Ayai yai, ayai yai, talking
About one big Hawaiian man
Oh, aloha, mahalo too
They say in old Kauai
Oh talking, so cute, talking down in Kauai

Ayai yai, ayai yai, baby, listen to me
Talking about the Hawaiian man
Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
Talking about the Hawaiian man
Joe Naves, Robbie Kaholaku too, in old Kauai
Oh, oh, so many more to say

Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
Talking about the Hawaiian man
Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
Talking about the Fijiman
Ni sa bula, moce vinaka too
Singing down in Fijiland
Kiora kiora too, they say down in Kiwiland

Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
Talking about the Fijian man
Ayai yai, ayai yai, tui maui, I'm talking
About the Maui man

Moce vinaka, ni sa yandra
Yo, yo, yo
You singing down in Fijiland

Ayai yai, ayai yai, listen to me
