Marianne

All day, all night, Marianne
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
 Even little children love Marianne
 Down by the seaside siftin' sand
 Marianne, oh, Marianne, oh, won't you marry me?
 And we can have a bamboo hut and brandy in the tea
 Leave your fat old mamma home, she never will say yes
 If mama don't know now, she can guess
 My, my, yes
 All day, all night, Marianne
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
 Even little children love Marianne
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
 When she walks along the shore, people pause to greet
 White 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 day, all night, Marianne
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
 Even little children love Marianne
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
 Now when we marry we will have a time you never saw
 I will be so happy that I kiss my mother inlaw
 Children by the dozen in and out the bamboo hut
 One for every palm tree and coconut
 Hurry up now
 All day, all night, Marianne
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
 Even little children love Marianne
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
 Down by the sea side siftin' sand
