Ho Don – One Paddle Two Paddle lyrics
[Chorus]
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
[Verse 1}
I went away a long time | such a long time | a long time ago,
Seen enough cities | to last a lifetime | goinʻ away no more.
[Chorus]
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
[Verse 2]
I want to smell the flowers | sweet sweet flowers | where the tradewinds blow,
Seen enough fences | to last a lifetime | goinʻ away no more | singinʻ.
[Chorus]
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
[Verse 3]
Yes, take me to my lover | my fair lover | I left long ago,
Felt enough sorrow | to last a lifetime | goinʻ away no more
[Chorus]
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
Nō ka best - nō ka best - nō ka best
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
[Verse 1}
I went away a long time | such a long time | a long time ago,
Seen enough cities | to last a lifetime | goinʻ away no more.
[Chorus]
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
[Verse 2]
I want to smell the flowers | sweet sweet flowers | where the tradewinds blow,
Seen enough fences | to last a lifetime | goinʻ away no more | singinʻ.
[Chorus]
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
[Verse 3]
Yes, take me to my lover | my fair lover | I left long ago,
Felt enough sorrow | to last a lifetime | goinʻ away no more
[Chorus]
One paddle, two padde | three paddle | for to take me home
Fourteen on the right | fourteen on the left
Take me to Hawai'i nei | nō ka best.
Nō ka best - nō ka best - nō ka best
