Marie-Lynn Hammond - La jeune marie (english) Lyrics

when I was a young bride
my husband said
come to bed with me
and nine months later
theres a little baby
is it a girl? well yes
not a boy? well no
so we have to choose her name
and we have to call her Marie something
so call her Marie-Ccile

Marie-Yvonne, Marie-Colette,
Marie-Thrse, Marie-Madeleine

(then finally)
another girl? Well no!
its a boy? Well yes!
so we have to choose a splendid name for him
call him Joseph Jean-Marie
Marie-Madeleine, Marie-Thrse (etc.)
Joseph Jean-Marie its a boy!
