Holoholo Ka`a - Words & music by Clarence Kinney

Kâua i ka holoholo ka`a
`Oni ana ka huila lawe a lilo
Ku`u aku `oe a pau pono
Nâ huahelu e kau ana 

`Alawa iho `oe ma ka `ao`ao
Hû ana ka makani hele uluulu
Mea `ole ka pi`ina me ka ihona
Me nâ kîke`e alanui

`O ka pâ kônane a ka mahina
Ahuwale nô i ka pae `ôpua
Eia kâua i ka pi`ina pau
A huli ho`i mai kâua 

He mana`o ko`u i ke kani ko`ele
Ua haki ka pilina a`o luna iho
He la`i pono ke kaunu `ana
He nanea mai ho`i kau 

Ha`ina kô wehi e ku`u lei
Ke huli ho`i nei kâua
Honi aku `oe i ka `ailea
Ke `oni nei ka huila

You and I on a joy ride
Wheels turn and carry us far away
Just relax until no more
Numbers come up

Glance to the sides
Wind whistles come in gusts
Climbing, going down, no matter
Or winding roads

The moon shines brightly
Fair upon the clouds
We are on the heights up there
But turn and go back

I worry about the clanking sound
Springs broken top to bottom
Passion calmed
So delightful

Sing your song my beloved
We go home
Breathing gasoline
Wheels turning
