I'm finally getting around to learning this great song and realize I'm not dead sure of the words. I only have Hugill singing it in which he (no big deal) makes a few tiny but interesting mistakes. Since it's not a chanty, it's not in Shanties so I can't verify direct from the source. (Even though WWW sources often attribute it there.)

1) Would some kind bibliophile let me know if Hugill's version in Songs of the Sea or other printed source is identical to DT - ROLLING DOWN TO OLD MAUI #1?

2) Is there any recent advance on Greenhaus' note of being unable to find any non-Hugillian trad source of a tune?

3) If otherDave still cares, Hugill says "KAN a kas" in this song but "ka NA ka" in "John Kanaka."   I've seen a (just web, not authoritative) definition of it as sort of "gentlefolk" - distant relatives of the royals. That could easily be generalized to "Hawaiians," though as we do in the US ("Ladies and Gentlemen").

I thank youse.
