The Lyrics
Since this is an older song, I thought I'd include the original lyrics: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 yesif Mama don't know now she can guess. [My my yes.]All day, all night, MarianneDown by the seaside siftin' sand.Even little children love MarianneDown 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 manWho's allowed to kiss my Marianne. [Don't rush me.]All day, all night, MarianneDown by the seaside siftin' sand.Even little children love MarianneDown by the seaside siftin' sand.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 hutone for ev'ry palm tree and coconut. [Hurry up now.]All day, all night, MarianneDown by the seaside siftin' sand.Even little children love MarianneDown by the seaside siftin' sand.
1) MariAnne, oh MariAnne, oh please don't cook for me
Simply because my next birthday I would like to see
You'd make me a 12- course meal-- I hate to tell you, girl:
There ain't THAT much ketchup... in the world!
R1: Three days, three nights, MariAnne
Your chicken soup had me on the can;
Even little children fear MariAnne,
Standing by the crockpot, spoon in hand...
2) When she ambles toward the stove, guests jump to their feet,
Out the door, to the safety of the Brooklyn street (OY!)
I'm not sure, but I might be the only mortal man
Who's survived the pot roast of MariAnne. (Kaopectate!)
R2: Three days, three nights, MariAnne--
She made her damn chicken soup again!
You'd think that I'd have learned-- but then:
Somehow I love my MariAnne...
3) When we marry, there will be no kitchen in our house,
So that she can never accidentally "off" her spouse (ACK!!!)
Saw a place I liked today: it's not too roomy but
It's right next to Subway, and Pizza Hut! (carry out, please...)
R3: Three days, three nights, MariAnne--
This chicken soup thing has got to end;
Promise me you'll never cook again--
PLEASE, if you love me, MariAnne!!!
