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]

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]
