The song "Waiomina" is one of those great Hawaiian songs which takes place in the early 20th Century and tells the story of two local boys from Waimea, on the Big Island of Hawai'i and their journey to the state of Wyoming for the World Rodeo Championships.

And to everyone's surprise, they walked away with the "World's Greatest Cowboy" title.

This song tells the story of their victory...

♪♪ ♪♪ (singing in Hawaiian) ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ Anybody who knows us knows that we're a very carefree group and often silly at times.

And we were looking for a song that could capture that free spirit, that playfulness that we try and get across to people.

And what better choice than this song, which speaks of a girl who's very generous, while handing out her very sweet and ripe papaya.

This song by Harry Owens, "Princess Poopooly."
