Marianne - The Brothers Four (四兄弟)

Written by：Terry Gilkyson/Richard Dehr/Frank Miller

How I love my Marianne

How I love my 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

With brandy in the tea

Leave your fat old mama home

She never will say yes

If your mama don't know now

She can guess

All day all night Marianne

Down by the seaside 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 everybody

All day all night Marianne

Down by the seaside siftin' sand

Even little children love Marianne

Down by the seaside siftin' sand

And when we marry we will have

A time you never saw

I will be so happy

I will kiss my mother in law phooey

Children by the dozen

In and out the bamboo hut

One for every palm tree

And count don't

All day all night Marianne

Down by the seaside siftin' sand

Even little children love Marianne

Down by the seaside siftin' sand

How I love my Marianne

How I love my Marianne
