Lūʻau Feet - by Irmgard Farden Aluli
Kane version   When I'm walking down the street People call me lūʻau feet I don't let that bother me That would be defeat I'm a native island boy Living on my fish and poi Ten fat toes that's how it goes For my lūʻau feet I can do a hula Even walk on rocks I can climb a coconut tree All in barefoot style, that's me I'm as happy as can be Shoes don't suit me you can see Barefoot style is best for me And my lūʻau feet	Wahine version When I'm walking down the street People look at my big feet I don't let that bother me I have lūʻau feet I'm a big wahine ē Wāwae nui with a sway I'm not mahaʻoi, they say With my lūʻau feet I can holo holo Even 'round the isle I can do most anything All in barefoot style, that's me I'm as happy as can be High heels, low heels don't suit me Barefoot style is best for me. Oh my lūʻau feet
