Many thanks to all my GUAMANIAN friends and family for the lessons in language and culture.

Lyrics

hafa adai mama, my chamorrita
take me on a tour of your island
we’ll carabao all the way to santa rita
drinking margaritas in white sand

you’re my heart, you’re my soul, you’re my nene
morning, noon and night i’m magodai
yea you’re hotter than a bowl of finadene
i can see the island in your eyes

middle of nowhere
dressed in bahaki
i wanna go there
i’ll be your haole

yea i’m coming undone for the 671
i hope that i can fit in where america’s day begins
and i’m so far away from home
boonie stomp to a latte stone
there’s no other tao tao, hu guiya hao

you make my heart burn, it goes on fire
you go to town on that bowl of pickled papaya
shake those hips get in the flow
(i like the way that you dance)
i can not promise you no no no no no to ‘keep my eyes on the hands’

no, got no more sorrows
so, beautiful as she
goes, and gets all chamorro
oh, and calls me her haole

yea i’m coming undone for the 671
i hope that i can fit in where america’s day begins
and i’m so far away from home
boonie stomp to a latte stone
there’s no other tao tao, hu guiya hao
