Kaitaraiwa

Kaitaraiwa, hipa i tō Meri
Kia kitea tana kanohi
Kaua e auporo te moni
Kaitaraiwa, hipa i tō Meri

Kaitaraiwa, huri anō koa
Kaua e ware ki te pūtea
E hiahia kia kōrero māua
Kaitaraiwa, huri ano koa
Kaitaraiwa, ki te kāinga
Te āhua nei ka tōtahi rā
Ka tuku pea he ipo e Te Atua
Kaitaraiwa, ki te kāinga

Cab driver, drive by Mary's place
I just want a chance to see her face
Don't stop the meter, let it race
Cab driver, drive by Mary's place

Kaitaraiwa, ki te kāinga
Te āhua nei ka tōtahi rā
Ka tuku pea he ipo e Te Atua
Kaitaraiwa, ki te kāinga

Cab driver, better take me home
Kaitaraiwa, ki te kāinga!
