Mama don't scold me, I no go work today
Down in Iwalei in a pineapple cannery
Mama don't scold me, I bring a lei for you
I sing all day for you, the song of Hawaii

Fish and poi, fish and poi
All I need is fish and poi
Sunshine free, Waikiki
No care tomorrow

Sister Bell dress up swell
Dance the hula in a big hotel
Shake this way, shake that way
No care tomorrow

Mama don't scold her, someday she catch a boy
She bring him fish and poi at pineaple cannery
Mamo no feel bad, someday I sure make good
Hawaii get statehood, me president maybe

Fish and poi, fish and poi
All I need is fish and poi
Need no more from the store
No care tomorrow

Fish and poi, fish and poi
All day long eats fish and poi
Big opu, no huhu
No care tomorrow
