Jeff Perez - The Reef Song (Hele Lawai'a) Lyrics

I can hardly sleep
No use counting sheep
Mind is on the reef
There is no place I'd radda (Rather) be

I tie all my line
Hook and sinker all look fine
I try check time for sunrise
All I need is perfect tide

The ocean and me become one
Unda-neet Hawaiian sun
There's no place I radda be
Than fishing on the reef in Hawaii

I tro out my first line
Hook and sinker all look fine
Bait is fresh as it can be
Now it's up to da sea

Life is hard, work is fine
But I am not da kind
If I had my way
I'd go fishing everyday
I'd go fishing everyday

I taught my boys how to fish the reef
It was exciting to me
Nigel, Carl, Andy and Greggie
Now they go fish mo dan me
They think so

The ocean and me become one
Unda-neet Hawaiian sun
No place I radda be
Than fishing on the reef in Hawaii
Than fishing on the reef in Hawaii
Than fishing on the reef in Hawaii
