Kicked back, in a cane shack
By the railroad track
It’s the Ka’anapali line
Broken stares from the rockin’ chairs
On the old lana’i, By the super high-rise…

We watch you go by…in Honokowai
(1) We can hear you now…in Kahana so loud
(2) We can see you now…in Makawao
(3) We can feel you now…in Hana somehow
Maybe you think we’re sleeping…
In days gone by
But we watch you go by…in Honokowai
We watch you go by…in Honokowai

Paradise is so nice, but it’s twice the price
When you’re coming from behind…
Click track, from the amp rack
We were way back
Now we’re comin’ from behind
