Marianne, oh, Marianne, oh, won't you marry me? 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 seaside 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 seaside siftin' sand When we marry we will have a time you never saw I will be so happy I will 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 seaside siftin' sand
