Marianne Lyrics - John Hiatt

Oh, Marianne 

Please don't marry that insurance man 

I just saw your picture in the paper 

Surrounded by extensive wedding plans 

Tell me this is just one of your capers 

Say you haven't met with their demands 

(Chorus) 

Oh, Marianne 

Love talks cheap and faster than I can 

Oh, Marianne 

Please don't marry that insurance man

I can't see you packing up his lunches 

I can't see you diapering his son 

You're the girl who always played her hunches 

So how'd you figure out that this was one 

(Chorus) 

Oh, Marianne 

Love talks cheap and faster than I can 

Oh, Marianne 

Please don't marry that insurance man 

I'm not saying I grew up in love with you 

I'm sayin', "Why grow up at all?" 

So tell that Hoosier boy to put on clean socks 

And the finest double-knits that he can wear 

'Cause when that invitation hits my mailbox 

I'll see you at his funeral, my dear

(Chorus) 

Oh, Marianne 

Love talks cheap and faster than I can 

Oh, Marianne 

Please don't marry that insurance man
