Aloha Rosa
Cracklin' Rosie rewritten with apologies to Neil Diamond
Aloha Rosa, we’re on board
We're gonna read till there ain't no more to go
Workin' with ho’ohona
Switchin' on the internet train
Plenty there that I need to take along
Rewrite a song
To sing when I want
Don't need to say please to no man for a happy tune
Oh, I love my Aloha Rosa
She got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Aloha
You make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to it, girl
Your song keeps runnin' on
Say it now
Say it now
Say it now,
Aloha Rosa, help me 'Imi ola
Aloha is an attitude, that's all right
We got all night
Find us a dream kulia I ka nu’a
Oh, I love my Aloha Rosa
You got the way to make me happy
You and me, we go in style
Aloha
You make me sing like a guitar hummin'
So hang on to it, girl
Your song keeps runnin' on
Say it now
Say it now
Say it now,
Aloha
Aloha is an attitude, that's all right
We got all night
Find us a dream kulia I ka nu’a

Steve, you rock!
Now someone please help me connect Steve up with a podcast - I want to hear him sing it!
I've sung it out loud for myself, and if you can imagine it, did a rockin' hula dance at the same time :-)
Absolutely true story: My dad used to sing this song to me all the time - kind of a mixture of yours and Neil's original! He's been in heaven for 16 years now, and I can still hear him as I read these words. I can't imagine how you could have given me a greater gift Steve.
With love in my heart, and the biggest aloha kisses you can imagine,
Rosa

ah, there will be a podcast in the near future of me talking but I would not create that kind of torture (i.e. me singing) for any one especially such kind friends ...
I can carry an idea to fruition but I can not carry a note.
Rock on!
