Marianne, marianne, marianne, marianne
Whoa ho ho here I am on my knees again
I'll do anything just to make it right
Say you'll understand, oh I know you can
C'mon marianne
No matter what people say, it didn't happen that way
She was a passing fling and not a permanent thing
Say you'll understand, oh I know you can
C'mon marianne (baby)
C'mon marianne (baby)
C'mon marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My marianne, marianne, marianne, marianne
Well now your big brown eyes are all full of tears
From the bitterness of my cheatin' years
So I hang my head, wish that I was dead
C'mon marianne (baby)
C'mon marianne (baby)
C'mon marianne (baby)
Say you can understand
My marianne (baby)
C'mon marianne (baby)
C'mon marianne (baby)
Marianne, marianne, marianne, marianne
