Are you sure you want to do that, dwditty? You're a glutton for punishment. I found it somewhere a while back - and I didn't have to do the typing.

MY LITTLE GRASS SHACK IN KE-A-LA-KE-KUA, HAWAII Words and music by Bill Cogswell, Tommy Harrison and Johnny Noble

I want to go back to my little grass shack in Ke-a-la-ke-kua, Hawaii.
I want to be with all the ka-nes and wa-hi-nes that I knew long ago.
I can hear old guitars a-playing, on the beach at Ho-o-nau-nau
I can hear the Hawaiians saying,
"Ko-mo-mai no-ka-u-a i-ka ha-le we-la-ka-hao."

It won't be long 'til my ship will be sailing back to Kona
A grand old place that's always fair to see.
I'm just a little Hawaiian and a homesick island boy,
I want to go back to my fish and poi,

I want to go back to my little grass shack in Ke-a-la-ke-kua, Hawaii.
Where the hu-mu-hu-mu-nu-ku-nu-ku-a-pu-a'a goes swimming by.
Where the hu-mu-hu-mu-nu-ku-nu-ku-a-pu-a'a goes swimming by.
