Verse 1:
I've been many places, tasted all the flavors
If there's one thing I can't understand, it's why I'm never satisfied
There's nothing like the feeling, when you start craving
Flashbacks reminiscing about that one very first luau
Bridge:
Soon as I start to head back home
I call my bruddahs up on the phone
We're heading down to that special place
Where you can bulk up for days
Chorus:
I like my fish and poi, I'm a big boy
Lomi salmon, pipikaula, extra large lilikoi
Squid or chicken lu'au, don't forget the laulau
Beef or tripe stew just to name a few, oh yeah
Verse 2:
Can't forget Papa's specialty
And Mama's poi mochi
Smoke meat, shoyu poke wit da rice can make a bad day feel real nice
Bridge:
I'm flashing back all over again
I know you feel what I'm feeling within
And every local boy would agree
That it's just the Hawaiian in me
Chorus
I like my fish and poi, I'm a big boy
Lomi salmon, pipikaula, extra large lilikoi
Squid or chicken lu'au, don't forget the laulau
Beef or tripe stew just to name a few, oh yeah
Reggae/rap
Me say

Me eat da food 'cause me real big boy

They serve the food extra scoop of everything 'cause
I love de fishes baby I love de poi
Wit pipikaula extra rice on de side

And me not goin stop until dis hawiian's fine
Chorus
I like my fish and poi, I'm a big boy
Lomi salmon, pipikaula, extra large lilikoi
Squid or chicken lu'au, don't forget the laulau
Beef or tripe stew just to name a few, oh yeah
Oh yeah (x2)
