Lyrics
ʻAkahi hoʻi au a ʻike maka
Nā roughrider ka helu ʻekahi
A ke inu i ka wai aniani
E maʻū i ka puʻu ke moni
Hui:
E huʻi ē, huʻi ē lā
Huʻi konikoni i ka puʻuwai
E huʻi ē, hu'i ē lā
Huʻi konikoni i ka puʻuwai
Kilakila nā roughrider
Me ka ua Kīpuʻupuʻu
Me ka nani aʻo Puʻu Kalani
Me ka hae o ka lanakila
Hanohano wale nā cowboy
Ka makuʻu noho ʻĪtālia
Hālena pono ʻoe i kaula ʻili
I ka lae o ka pipi ʻāhiu
