In A Canoe
- Manny Lemes & Johnny Noble
I never was so lonesome
And just because I'm lonesome
I'm lost and I can't find my way
I only live in memory
Of all the things I used to do
Back on the shores of Waikīkī
In a canoe
I used to sing a melody
To all the fishes that I knew
As I go paddling out to sea
In a canoe
Chorus:
I'd give the world to get back
Where I can be by the sea
And maybe someday I'll find someone
Who really cares for me
I only live in memory
Of all the things I used to do
Back on the shores of Waikīkī
In a canoe
