Lahaina lyrics

I was sitting at a table on an open bay

Waiting for drink of rum

When I asked my waiter for the time of day

She said, “Look out there's a centipede coming your way”

In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow

In Lahaina, the living is slow

In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet

But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

I was lying by the water in the morning sun

Shaded by a coconut tree

When I turned around it was all I could see

There was great big centipede staring at me

In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow

In Lahaina, the living is slow

In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet

But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

I had only just a second to decide what to do

While looking at his poisonous fangs

When I said, "I thought it was a beautiful day"

He said, "Wow Mr. Hall I think you're pushing my leg"

In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow

In Lahaina, the living is slow

In Lahaina, the mangos are sweet

But the centipede he crawls all over your feet
