| Lyrics: | 1st verse:]
Oh, Marie, 'neath the window I'm waiting
Oh, Marie, please don't be so
aggravating
Can't you see my heart just yearns for you, dear
With fond affection
And
love that's true, dear
Meet me while the Summer moon is beaming
For you and me, the little
stars are beaming
Please come out tonight, my queen
Can't you hear my
mandolin?
[chorus:]
My sweet Marie from sunny Italy
Oh how I do love
you
Say that you'll love me, love me, too
Forever more I will be true
Just say the
word and I will marry you
And then you'll surely be
My sweet Marie from sunny
Italy
[2nd verse:]
Oh, Marie, I've been waiting so patiently
Oh, Marie, please
come out and I shall happy be
Raise your window, love, and say you're coming
The little
birds, dear
Are sweetly humming
Don't say, "No," my sweet Italian Beauty
There's not
another maiden e'er could suit me
Come out, love, don't be afraid
Listen to my serenade |
