Hum along and 'Keep the Country Country'

Hum Steve Miller's "Going to the Country" and sing:

People on the island know where to go,
Up to the country where life is real slow,
We like green space with some elbow room,
But now the natural coast may soon be doomed

Chorus: Hey ho, no more condos, save some green space for our keiki to know

Hey ho, do what's right, keep the country country is everyone's fight

From Kawela to Kahuku and down past Laie,
Condo commandos are stalking on their prey
They'll give us some parks at a few select spots
Where they'll pave paradise and put up parking lots

(Chorus)

Developer folks got one thing on their mind
That's make a lot of money and leave the islands behind
But then the kamaaina are stuck forever more
With condo-fed traffic jams and tourist shops galore
