lyrics
Stuck on the road
No need worry
E' na Kama'aina comin for me
no need to hurry
It's the Island way
Family and friends
Love makes them strong
The door is always open
you know you belong
Laughter and music
You'll be glad you stayed
E' na Kama'aina
E' na Kama'aina
The usual place
down by the bay
Fishing with the children
Till the end of the day
You can believe it
What the old folks say
E' na Kama'aina people of the land
E' na Kama'aina
Way up Waimea way
Right down to Hanalei
There is no better place to be
E' na Kama'aina
E' na Kama'aina
There's no other place for me
I'm so happy just to be
E' na Kama'aina
