All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside, sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside, sifting sand
Oh Marianne, oh Marianne, won't you marry me?
We can settle somewhere,
have some brandy in our tea
We'll go by by mama's home,
she'll never will say yes
If mama don't know now,
oh she can guess for Marianne
All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside, sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside, sifting sand
Oh when we marry we will have the time you ever saw
I would be so happy,
I'd kiss my mother-in-law
All the little children coming in the bamboo hut
One for every pound three,
a coconut for Marianne
All day,
all night,
Marianne Down by the seaside,
sifting sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside, sifting sand
Running the line is the Yankee dollar bill
Oh with the big big bamboo bamboo
Oh la
la la la la la la Working for the Yankee dollar
Well I asked my lady what should I do
To make her happy and make love true
She said the only thing that I want from you
Is a little little piece of the big bamboo
Oh with the big big bamboo bamboo Oh la la la la la la la
Working for the Yankee dollar
Well
I gave my lady a sugar cane Sweet of sweet,
so did I explain
She gave it back,
my surprise She liked the flavour but not the size
With the big big bamboo bamboo Oh la
la la la la la la la
Working for the Yankee dollar
Yee haw!
Shame
and scandal in the family
Oh kiss me
Shame and scandal in the family
In pre-need that there was a family
With much confusion as you will see
It was a mama and a papa and a boy who was grown
Who wanted to marry and have wife of his
own He found a girl who suited him nice
He went to his papa to ask his advice
His papa said son I have to say no
This girl is your sister but your mama don't know
Oh kiss me Shame and scandal in the family

Drinking rum and Coca Cola Go down point to my rum
Both mother and daughter Working for the Yankee dollar
If you ever go down pretty bad They make you feel so very glad
Calypso sing and make up rhyme Guarantee you one real good fine time
Drinking rum and Coca Cola Go down point to my rum
Both mother and daughter Working for the Yankee dollar
Fisher told to Trini that Can have good time he never had
If he come for rest okay Then he lie around in sun all day
Drinking rum and Coca Cola Go down point to my rum
Both mother and daughter Working for the Yankee dollar
