Songs from the 100th Film

Here we come, Mr. Truman
Let’s be the first into Rome, we can do it
General Clark says there’s work to be done
So get ready, look out—here we come

I’ve been in the trenches day and night
Iʻm looking for the bad man way up high
Just waiting for our days in the sun
Don’t you worry, baby—here we come

Now hold on to this moment and squeeze it tight
Forget about the battles we have left to fight
The autumn winds theyʻre calling me home
But sweet Signorina says, “Please don’t go”

Let’s liberate, then celebrate
We’ll have a better year than ’48
Me and my troops here to save the day
Say aloha, baby—here we come

Oh, help me now
That’s right
Oh, keep it going, fellas
Oh, let’s bring it home now

Hey, let’s liberate, we will celebrate
Weʻre gonna have a lot of fun in ’48
Me and my troops here to save the day
Say aloha, baby—here we come

Say aloha, baby—here we come

Hey Mr. Hitler, what you gonna do?
Here come the One-Puka-Puka and the Four-Four-Two
Hey Mussolini, they’re coming for you too
The Kotonks and the Buddhaheads are coming after you

Oh here we come, Team Alohas gonna get the job done
Hey Mr. Haole, let the braddahs come through
The One-Puka-Puka and the Four-Four-Two
Giveʻem braddahs. Oh. Giveʻem braddahs
The Kotonks and the Buddaheads are cominʻ after you

Hey Mr. Sergeant, can you give me some rice?
A little gohan would sure be nice
An old bento with spam musubi
A bowl of miso and some sashimi

Oh. Here we come—we’re gonna get the job done
Hey Mr. Haole, let the braddahs come through
The One-Puka-Puka and the Four-Four-Two
Go for Broke. Oh. Go for broke.
The Kotonks and the Buddaheads are cominʻ after you

You better look out for the M. I. S.
The Five-Two-Two and all the rest
Run for cover—ʻcause there’s nothing you can do
The Kotonks and the Buddhaheads are cominʻ after you

Oh. Here we come—we’re gonna get the job done
Hey Mr. Haole, let the braddahs come through
The One-Puka-Puka and the Four-Four-Two
Go for broke. Oh. Go for broke.
The Kotonks and the Buddhaheads are cominʻ after you

It was a quiet Sunday morning in 1941
When lives were changed forever for Hawaii’s native sons
They left behind their families and set aside their dreams
To go and fight a war in a place they’d never seen

Though others joined the battles eventually
it started in the islands with 100th infantry

Halfway around the world, they went to prove their loyalty
They proudly made their sacrifice to write their history
With courage and determination, they bravely made their way
They left their mark with purple hearts, and we honor them today

And they stood tall, like Amber waves of grain,
They gave their all when country called their name
On foreign soil, their backs against the wall
They gave their all, they gave their all

They gained a reputation, breaking through the lines
Inch by inch they struggled, they marched on through the night
They took on the impossible, gaining precious ground.
These little men of iron helped to turn the world around.

And they stood tall, like Amber waves of grain,
They gave their all when country called their name
On foreign soil, their backs against the wall
They gave their all, they gave their all

Keep the fire burning for all those who served
They’re the ones helped to save the world

And they stood tall, like Amber waves of grain,
They gave their all when country called their name
On foreign soil, their backs against the wall
They gave their all, they gave their all

Nothing replaces the smiles on the faces
Of these beautiful children tonight
For now let's forget with the time we have left
The battles, the struggles, the fight

There's only this moment
We'll let our hearts open
Like never before

And we all come together
The music, the laughter, the light
Yes, we all come together
On this night we'll remember
For the rest of our lives

The night skies revealing
On this cold Christmas evening
Dark clouds rising nearby

The morning will bring
Whatever it brings
But tonight, we dance and we fly

There's only this moment
We let our hearts open
Like never before

And we all come together
The music, the laughter, the light
Yes, we all come together
On this night we'll remember
For the rest of our lives

Forgiving, the caring
The joy that weʻre sharing

And we all come together
With the music, the laughter, the light
Yes, we all come together
On this night we'll remember

Will you hold on forever?
Yes, tonight we'll remember
For the rest of our lives.
