All dayall night
Mariannedown by the seaside siftin' sand.
Even little children love Mariannedown by the seaside siftin' sand.
Marianneoh
Marianneoh won't you marry me?
We can have a bamboo hutand brandy in the tea.
Leave your fat old Mama homeshe never will say yesif Mama don't know nowshe can guess.
Mymyyes.
When she walks along the shorepeople pause to greet.
White birds fly around herlittle fish come to her feet.
In her heart is lovebut I'm the only mortal man
Who's allowed to kiss my Marianne.
Don't rush me.
When we marry we will havea time you never saw.I will be so happy
I will kiss my Motherinlaw (phooey)
Children by the dozenin and out the bamboo hutone for ev'ry palm tree and cokynut.
Hurry up now.
All dayall night
Mariannedown by the seaside siftin' sand.
Even little children love Mariannedown by the seaside siftin' sand.
