- Description
- "Marita is just like a diamond - You must understand what I am thinking about. Marita's eyes are white, and I wish she would marry me. I once visited her at her village Mampampa-and oh, I wish she would marry. It does not matter if I have to pay all of ten pounds on her because I love her." The whitness of Marita's eyes no doubt refers to her clear eyes free from the pink tinge which so frequently colours the eyes of those who either drink too much or smoke marijuana.Love song with guitar and bottle.
