CD:
What's that I hear them strumming upon those steel guitars?
What's that I hear them humming so sweetly 'neath the stars?
Ev'ry morning noon and night
I hear the same sweet tune
And beneath the bright moonlight
I hear them softly croon
They play 'Aloha Oe' blues
The kind of blues I'll never lose
It haunts me all the whole day long
Where e'er I go I hear that song
Those lovely isles I long to see
Where happiness awaits for me
I'll soon be down Hawaii way where they play
Those 'Aloha Oe' Blues
What's that the band starts playing when e'er a ship comes thru?
'Aloha Oe' they're playing and that's to welcome you
With a smile upon your face
You'll meet a fond embrace
In that land across the sea
Where hearts are always free
They play 'Aloha Oe' blues
The kind of blues I'll never lose
It haunts me all the whole day long
Where e'er I go I hear that song
Those lovely isles I long to see
Where happiness awaits for me
I'll soon be down Hawaii way where they play
Those 'Aloha Oe' Blues
