Marianne

All night, all day, Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand Even little children love Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand Marianne, oh, Marianne Oh, won't you marry me We can have a bamboo hut And brandy in the tea Leave your fat old Mama home She never will say yes If mamma don't know now She can guess, my, my, yes All night, all day, Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand Even little children love Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand When she walks along the shore People pause to greet While birds fly around her Little fish come to her feet In her heart is love But I'm the only mortal man Who's allowed to kiss my Marianne Don't rush me All night, all day, Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand Even little children love Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand When we marry, we will have A time you never saw I will be so happy I will kiss me mother-in-law Children by the dozen In and out the bamboo hut One for every palm tree And coconut, hurry up now All night, all day, Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand Even little children love Marianne Down by the seaside, sifting sand
