19 Mar 03 - 12:59 AM (#913163) Subject: Lyr Req: Anne Marie From: Rapparee I could have missed it somehow, but does anyone have the words to a song recorded by the Smothers Brothers back in the sixties that starts Anne Marie loves Jean Pierre It's written on the cafe sidewalks everywhere Jean Pierre he loves Marie It's written in a heart that they carved upon a tree. I've got more verses, but I don't know if they are either accurate or complete. |

Anne Marie, she said one day "I love you very much so let us run away." Jean Pierre, he said "Oui, oui." And shouted to his friends "I'm marrying Marie." They ran off and reached the park But they were growing hungry, it was getting dark. They came back, but not to late For Anne Marie was seven, and Jean Pierre was eight. Ring any bells for anyone? I do not think that it was originally in French. |
22 Mar 03 - 01:47 PM (#916068) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Anne Marie From: Jim Dixon On this page they're offering for sale a 45-rpm record called "Anne Marie Loves Jean Pierre" sung by a "girl group" called the Sugarhill Four. The record label is Limelight 3034. Funny, I'm unable to find any other reference to the song (with that exact title) or the group. However, this Smothers Brothers discography says that "Anne Marie and Jean Pierre" was recorded by them on the 1964 album "It Must Have Been Something I Said." This collector's site says it was written by Lewis Allan and Alan Greene. Sorry, I can't find the lyrics or any sound samples, but maybe the additional information will help someone else find it. |

I still have it from the 60's. Between second and third verse is a break: "Lucky monsieur and mademoiselle; happy young love. May your love go well." They ran off.... That album was thier best in my opinion. |

I wonder if that's the same Lewis Allan (pseudonym for Abel Meeropol) who wrote Strange Fruit, The House I Live In, and other songs. |
