This song makes me a bit homesick. As kids we loved to sing this song a lot. We mostly sang Doo-Wop songs, and in English. But we sang this song in Hawaiian, not the English (Lounge Lizard) version, "Pearly Shells". Read along with the comments below the video (here or YouTube) and learn a little Hawaiian.
Pupu A O 'Ewa
(W pronounced as V: "Ewa" -->"Eeh-Vaah")





Püpü (a`o `Ewa) i ka nu`a (nä känaka)
E naue mai (a e `ike)
I ka mea hou (o ka `äina)
Ahe `äina (ua kaulana)
Mai nä küpuna mai
Alahula Pu`uloa he ala hele no
Ka`ahupähau, (Ka`ahupähau)
Alahula Pu`uloa he ala hele no
Ka`ahupähau, Ka`ahupähau


Nani Ka`ala hemolele i ka mälie
Kuahiwi kaulana a`o `Ewa
E ki`i ana i ka makani o ka `äina
Hea ka Moa`e eia au e ke aloha


Kilakila `o Polea noho i ka `olu
Ia home ho`ohihi a ka malihini
E walea ana i ka `olu o ke kiawe
I ka pa kolonahe a ke Kiu


Translation:

Shells of `Ewa throngs of people
Coming to learn
The news of the land
A land famous
From the ancient times
All of Pu`uloa, the path trod upon by
Ka`ahupahau
All of Pu`uloa, the path trod upon by
Ka`ahupahau


Beautiful Ka`ala, sublime in the calm
Famous mountain of `Ewa
That fetches the wind of the land
The tradewind calls, "here I am, beloved"


Majestic Polea in the coolness
Home delightful to visitors
Relaxing in the coolness of the kiawe
And the soft blowing of the Kiu wind

Alternate chorus translation:

Shells of Ewa
Leaving in the distance...
To the ocean...
Shells (of Ewa)
Bringing news (of the people)
They come (to learn)
The good word (of the land)
Oh, this land (so well-known)
From time of ages past
All of Pu'uloa is graced by Ka'ahupahau(Ka'ahupahau)
