Pa'I Of The Drums

In the quiet of the night
I hear a rhythm start to rise
Pulling at my heart strings
Calling me in... (where have you been?)

Every beat of the drums
I feel my feet move (akau...hema)
Rhythm consumes me
My hands start to tell a mo`olelo

U te te te U te te te...U te te te U te te te
U te te te U te te te...U te te te U te te te

The pa`i of the drums
Makes me want to cheehoo out loud (Chee hoo!)
The pa`i of the drums
Makes me hula (akau...hema)
The pa`i of the drums
Makes me want to old out loud
The pa`i of the drums
Beating to my pu`uwae (pu`uwae)
Move your wāwae
Move your wāwae

Where the winds come and go
Rhythm and beats love to flow
I feel my body and soul sway (sway)

Every beat of the drums
I feel my feet move (akau...hema)
Rhythm consumes me
My hands start to tell a mo`olelo

U te te te U te te te...U te te te U te te te
U te te te U te te te...U te te te U te te te

The pa`i of the drums
Makes me want to cheehoo out loud (Chee hoo!)
The pa`i of the drums
Makes me hula (akau...hema)
The pa`i of the drums
Makes me want to old out loud
The pa`i of the drums
Beating to my pu`uwae (pu`uwae)
Move your wāwae
Move your wāwae

U te u te te, U te u te u te te
U te te te, U te te te...U te te te, U te te te

The pa`i of the drums
Makes me want to cheehoo out loud (Chee hoo!)
The pa`i of the drums
Makes me hula (akau...hema)
The pa`i of the drums
Makes me want to old out loud
The pa`i of the drums
Beating to my pu`uwae (pu`uwae)
Move your wāwae
Move your wāwae
