It was the year 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue But the Indians had a tail to tell About the big kauhuna big wave well It comes every 45 years Get a big board its coming this summer It comes in the middle of the night The water flat the moonlight right Well the mountain men have a tale to tell Hillbilly surfers on logs from hell Coming down the mountains on the river swells For the big kauhuna big wave well I tried to build a ramp last night My skateboard broke but that’s all right
I gotta big stick for the big kauhuna I gotta get laid then catch this wave Skate party tonight I’m not gonna work or think this summer I gotta be ready to catch this wave Up with the sun it won’t be long The founding fathers have a tail to tell About this thing called god this wave from hell Catch it in the still moonlight If you catch it right you can ride it all night This wave bounces all around the world Catch it going out ride it to New Zealand
