Rocking Around Hawaii - song lyric
by Monty Harper and Frontier Elementary 4th Grade, 2001

On the island of Oahu
We’ll stay in Honolulu
In a hotel on the beach at Waikiki (Waikiki!)
We’ll have dinner at a luau
And learn to dance the hula
Everybody come along with me

Chorus:
Let’s go rockin’ round Hawaii
It’s the aloha state
We’ll see every major island
Because we love all eight
(girls:) We think they’re great
(boys:) We love all eight

On the island of Kauai
We’ll climb the sleeping giant
We’ll hit the beach and hear the barking sand (Woof woof woof!)
Then we’ll visit Niihau
If the Robinsons allow
It’s a place where cars and TV sets are banned

Repeat Chorus

We’ll view Kahoolawe
From the south west shore of Maui
So the Navy doesn’t give us any grief (Good grief!)
On Lanai and Molokai
We’ll look nature in the eye
We’ll snorkel with the dolphins on the reef

Repeat Chorus

On the Valley Island, Maui
We’ll climb volcanic mountains
And watch the whales in Ma’alaea Bay (Thar she blows!)
On the Island of Hawaii
We’ll drive to Kilauea
To see hot lava bubbling away

Repeat Chorus
