Sweet Wahini Mama

Rain come down on sweet salt water
Palm trees sway in the charcoal sun
I peel papaya with the captain's daughter
I eat the mango till the nectar comes

Little darlin' like sweet sugar cane now
Suck its juices till it runs so dry
Then we'll go sailing gonna get there somehow
To the paradise beyond the sky

And evening brings the storm
But mama - sweet wahini mama
Mama keep me warm

Butterfly come from the cocoon
Ivory pearl come from the oyster shell
But me I come from back of the gray moon
So far, so far, no man can tell

Little darlin' like sweet sugar canе now
Suck its juices till it runs so dry
Then we'll go sailing gonna gеt there somehow
To the paradise beyond the sky

And evening brings the storm
But mama - sweet wahini mama
Mama keep me warm
