Tekster: Traditional. Marianne.

All day
all night
Marianne

down by the seaside siftin' sand.
Even little children love Marianne

down by the seaside siftin' 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.
My
my
yes.

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.

When we marry we will have
a time you never saw.
I will be so happy
I will kiss my Motherinlaw (phooey)
Children by the dozen
in and out the bamboo hut

one for ev'ry palm tree and cokynut.
Hurry up now.

All day
all night
Marianne

down by the seaside siftin' sand.
Even little children love Marianne

down by the seaside siftin' sand.
