[Intro]
B F# B
[Verse 1]
B It was a teenage wedding B And the old folks wished 'em well B You could see that Pierre F# Did truly love the Mademoiselle F# And the young Monsieur and Madame F# Have rung the chapel bell F# "C'est la vie," -Say the old folks B It goes to show that you never can tell
[Verse 2]
B They furnished off an apartment B With a two room Roebuck sale B The coolerator was filled F# With TV Dinners and ginger ale F# But when Pierre found work F# The little money comin' worked out well F# "C'est la vie," -Say the old folks B It goes to show that you never can tell
[Verse 3]
B They had a Hi-Fi phono B Boy, did they let it blast B Seven hundred little records F# All rock, rhythm and jazz F# But when the sun went down F# The rapid tempo of the music fell F# "C'est la vie," -Say the old folks B It goes to show that you never can tell
[Verse 4]
B They bought a souped up jitney B 'Twas a cherry in fifty-three B They drove it down to New Orleans F# To celebrate their anniversary F# It was there where Pierre was wedded F# To the lovely Mademoiselle F# "C'est la vie," -Say the old folks B It goes to show that you never can tell
