Bb
It was a teenage wedding

And the old folks wished them well

You could see that Pierre
                          F
Did truly love the mademoiselle

And now the young monsier and madame

Have rung the chapel bell

Cest la vie say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell
Bb
The furnished off an apartment

With a two room Roebuck sale

The coolerator was crammed
                          F
With TV dinners and gingerale

But when Pierre found work 

The little money coming worked out well

Cest la vie say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell
Bb
They had a hi fi phono

Boy did they let it blast

Seven hundred little records
                     F
All rock rhythmn and jazz

But when the sun went down

The rapid tempo of the music fell

Cest la vie say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell

SOLO

Bb
They bought a souped up jitney

T'was a cherry red fifty nine

They drove it down to New Orleans
                          F
To celebrate their anniversary

It was there that Pierre

Was wedded to the lovely madamoiselle

Cest la vie say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell
Bb
It was a teenage wedding

And the old folks wished them well

You could see that Pierre
                          F
Did truly love the mademoiselle

And now the young monsier and madame

Have rung the chapel bell

Cest la vie say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell
        F
Cest la vie say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell
        F
Cest la vie say the old folks
                              Bb
It goes to show you never can tell
