35

(Pre-chorus)
Tapa reireia tapa
Konunua tapa
Tapa konunua koe ana tukua
Tapa reia tapa
Konunua tapa
Konunua koe ana tukua

(Chorus)
Ka hao i runga
Ka hao i raro
Ka hao i te manawa
Taku taanga manawa

(Verse 1)
First place to see the sun
Te Tairāwhiti is always on
Best be ready for the time of your life
Cruising down to Highway 35
Whakarongo ake
Harapa ana te Ngāti ki te riu o Waiapu
Tū ake, tū ake, Te Whakatōhea
He Wīwī Naati nō Porourangi
E ko te Kuti, te Wera, te Haua ko Apanui

(Pre-chorus)
Tapa reireia tapa
Konunua tapa
Tapa konunua koe ana tukua
Tapa reia tapa
Konunua tapa
Konunua koe ana tukua

(Chorus)
Ka hao i runga
Ka hao i raro
Ka hao i te manawa
Taku taanga manawa

(Verse 2)
Ruatorea pies are the one and only
Tūtaki ki te Haati Naati
Mmm te reka
Whakatata, tata rawa, whakatata tata rawa
Tata ki Waiparapara
Waiparapara
State Highway 35
Tokomaru for a pāua pie
Straight down to Whāngara, tama ko Paikea
Wai weherua, Tūranga

[BREAK]

(Pre-chorus)
Tapa reireia tapa
Konunua tapa
Tapa konunua koe ana tukua
Tapa reia tapa
Konunua tapa
Konunua koe ana tukua

(Chorus)
Ka hao i runga
Ka hao i raro
Ka hao i te manawa
Taku taanga manawa! x3
