Marianne - woo-hoo-hoo, Marianne - woo-hoo
Marianne - woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, Marianne
Whooa-hoo-hoo, Marianne!

Whoa, here I am - here I am
On my knees again - knees again
I'll do anything - anything
Just to make it right - make it right
Say you'll understand - understand
Yes, I know you can - know you can
C'mon, Marianne - Marianne

It don't matter what people say - people say
It didn't happen that way - happen that way
She was a passing swing - passing swing
And not a permanent thing - permanent thing
Say you'll understand - understand
Yes, I know you can - 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 - big brown eyes
Are all full of tears - full of tears
From the bitterness - bitterness
Of my cheatin' years - cheatin' years
So I hang my head - hang my head
I wish that I was dead - 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
Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne
Marianne, Marianne, Marianne, Marianne ....
