Burl Ives - Marianne lyrics
Your rating:
(Love her in the day time) (Love her in the night time) Anytime we love's the right time [CHORUS] All night, all day, Marianne Down by the seaside sifting sand Even little children love Marianne (Everybody love her) 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 mama don't know now She can guess, oh, my, yes [Repeat CHORUS] When she walks along the shore People pause to greet White birds fly around her Little fish come to her feet (How delightful) In her heart is love But I'm the only mortal man Who's allowed to kiss my Marianne Don't rush me [Repeat CHORUS] When we marry, we will have A time you never saw I will be so happy I will kiss my mother-in-law (Ha ha ha ha) Children by the dozen In and out the bamboo hut One for every palm tree And coconut (hurry up now) [Repeat CHORUS] All night, all day Marianne, Marianne
