Marianne:The Hilltoppers.
#20 in UK on LONDON Records in 1957.
INTRO:
All day, all night, Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
Even little children love Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
#1.
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 Mamma don t know now, she can guess..my, my, yes.
CHORUS:
All day, all night, Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
Even little children love Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
#2.
When she walks along the shore, people
pause to greet.
While 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 Mari..anne..
Don t rush me.
CHORUS:
All day, all night, Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
Even little children love Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
#3.
When we marry, we will have a time you never saw.
I will be so happy, I will kiss my mother-in-law.
Children by the dozen, in and out the bamboo hut,
one for every palm tree, and coconut..hurry up now.
CHORUS:
All day, all night, Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
Even little children love Marianne.
Down by the seaside sifting sand.
OUTRO:
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
