It was a [C]teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well. You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoi[G7]selle. [G7]And now the young monsieur and madam have rung the chapel bell, ‘C’est la vie’, say the old folks, it goes to show you never can [C]tell. [G7]

They furnished [C]off an apartment with a two room Roebuck sale. The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger [G7]ale. [G7]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 [C]tell. [G7]

They bought a [C]souped-up jitney, ’twas a cherry red ’53. They drove it down New Orleans to celebrate their anniversa[G7]ry. [G7]It was there that Pierre was married to the lovely mademoiselle. C’est la vie’, say the old folks, it goes to show you never can [C]tell.
