A Waimanalo original
One-two-three-four
One-two-three-four

What happened to your sister
What have they done to hurt her
Did they cut out her heart
Did they tell her a lie
What did they to make her cry

Will they be back
To see Paradise
Or will they just pass her by

*REPEAT

*And it's goodbye California
I'm a-gonna leave you now
Going where the weather
Suits my Soul

And it's Hello Waimanalo
I'm a-coming back to you
Looking for a home
With a mountain view

*REPEAT

*And it's goodbye California
I'm a-gonna leave you now
Going where the weather
Suits my Soul

And it's Hello Waimanalo
I'm a-coming back to you
Looking for a home
With a mountain view

I been here and there and everywhere
Enjoyed your city lights
I've had your lovely women
And your dreamless vaulted nights
When it's nice, it's just like home
And homeward I am bound
To gather fragrant flowers
Before it's all been found

*REPEAT

*And it's goodbye California
I'm a-gonna leave you now
Going where the weather
Suits my Soul

And it's Hello Waimanalo
I'm a-coming back to you
Looking for a home
With a mountain view

Looking for a homestead
Mountain view
Waimanalo, I'm coming back to you
