I'll take another cold beer from you, brother

Got a story I could tell ya

Could you drop a pink umbrella in my high life?

And make it look like a mai tai

I'll paint you a palm tree picture

Couple fools in paradise.

Swept up in the blue, we

We're living life in a movie

Just like elvis and priscilla, yeah, the both of us

Drinking pineapple rum out of a coconut

By the ocean, happy as a ukulele

Yeah, that rainbow we were under

Sometimes I wonder why we

Ever left hawaii.

Back on the mainland

Things ain't the same, man

Wish we could go back to island time

We had a plan to sell bamboo and chimes

At a roadside souvenir stand

We had it all in the palm of our hands

But it slipped right through like sand in waimea bay

We shoulda stayed.

Swept up in the blue, we

We're living life in a movie

Just like elvis and priscilla, yeah, the both of us

Drinking pineapple rum out of a coconut

By the ocean, happy as a ukulele

Yeah, that rainbow we were under

Sometimes I wonder why we

Ever left hawaii.

Swept up in the blue, we

We're living life in a movie

Just like elvis and priscilla, yeah, the both of us

Drinking pineapple rum out of a coconut

By the ocean, happy as a ukulele

Yeah, that rainbow we were under

Sometimes I wonder why we

Ever left hawaii.

Ever left hawaii.
