| Intro: |
| It was a teenage wedding |
| And the old folks wished them well |
| You could see that Pierre |
| did truly love the madamoiselle |
| And now the young monsieur |
| and madame have rung the chapel bell |
| "C'est la vie", say the old folks |
| it goes to show you never can tell |
| They furnished off an apartment |
| with a two room Roebuck sale |
| The coolerator was crammed |
| with TV dinners and ginger ale, |
| But when Pierre found work |
| the little money comin' worked out well |
| "C'est la vie", say the old folks |
| It goes to show you never can tell |
| They had a hi-fi phono, boy |
| did they let it blast |
| Seven hundred little records |
| all rock, rhythm and jazz |
| But when the sun went down |
| the rapid tempo of the music fell |
| "C'est la vie", say the old folks |
| it goes to show you never can tell |
| They bought a souped-up jitney |
| 'twas a cherry red '53, |
| They drove it down to Orleans |
| to celebrate the anniversary |
| It was there that Pierre was married |
| to the lovely madamoiselle |
| "C'est la vie", say the old folks |
| it goes to show you never can tell |
