[Verse 1]
Hey, Nanine
Get your tambourine
Come and join the dancers on the green
Hear the band playin'
Hear them all sayin'
"Lovely day for jubilee"

[Chorus]
Tambourine tamba
Tambourine tap it
With your hand and on your knee
Tambourine tamba
Tambourine give a
Shake, shake, shake of your tambourine

[Verse 2]
Hey, Nanine
Will you be my wife?
We will dance together all our life
With my song and your tambourine
We will spread the joy
Of our village green, hey!

[Chorus]
Tambourine tamba
Tambourine tap it
With your hand and on your knee
Tambourine tamba
Tambourine give a
Shake, shake, shake of your tambourine
[Verse 3]
If we all could join
Hand in hand
We would dance and sing across the land
Every village
And every green
Would go dancing to our tambourine (Hey!)

[Chorus]
Tambourine tamba (Hey!)
Tambourine tap it (Hey!)
With your hand (Hey!) and on your knee (Hey!)
Tambourine tamba (Hey!)
Tambourine give a (Hey!)
Shake, shake, shake (Hey!) of your tambourine (Hey!)

[Chorus]
Tambourine tamba
Tambourine tap it
With your hand and on your knee (Hey!)
Tambourine tamba
Tambourine give a
Shake, shake, shake of your tambourine (Hey!)
