| [00:02.97] |
It was a teenage wedding |
| [00:04.50] |
And the old folks wished them well |
| [00:08.97] |
You could see that Pierre did truly love |
| [00:11.36] |
The Mademoiselle |
| [00:14.94] |
And now the young Monsieur and Madame |
| [00:17.42] |
Have rung the chapel bell |
| [00:21.12] |
"c'est la vie" say the old folks |
| [00:23.11] |
It goes to show you never can tell |
| [00:27.34] |
They furnished off an apartment |
| [00:28.74] |
with a two room Roebuck sale |
| [00:33.30] |
The coolerator was crammed |
| [00:34.88] |
with TV dinners and ginger ale |
| [00:39.41] |
But when Pierre found work |
| [00:40.86] |
The little money comin' worked out well |
| [00:45.44] |
"c'est la vie" say the old folks |
| [00:47.38] |
It goes to show you never can tell |
| [00:51.75] |
They had a Hi-Fi phono |
| [00:53.07] |
Boy, did they let it blast |
| [00:57.61] |
Seven hundred little records, |
| [00:59.40] |
all rock, rhythm and jazz |
| [01:03.80] |
But when the sun went down |
| [01:05.23] |
The rapid tempo of the music fell |
| [01:09.80] |
"c'est la vie" say the old folks |
| [01:11.87] |
It goes to show you never can tell |
| [01:16.29] |
They bought a souped-up jitney |
| [01:17.92] |
'twas a cherry red '53 |
| [01:21.96] |
They drove it down to New Orleans |
| [01:23.48] |
To celebrate their anniversary |
| [01:28.27] |
It was there where Pierre was married |
| [01:30.42] |
To the lovely Mademoiselle |
| [01:34.23] |
"c'est la vie" say the old folks |
| [01:36.40] |
It goes to show you never can tell |
| [01:39.74] |
(Instrumental Break – piano solo) |
| [02:05.24] |
They had a teenage weddin’ |
| [02:06.66] |
And the old folks wished them well |
| [02:11.22] |
You could see that Pierre did truly love |
| [02:13.72] |
The Mademoiselle |
| [02:17.40] |
And now the young Monsieur and Madame |
| [02:19.53] |
Have rung the chapel bell |
| [02:23.35] |
"c'est la vie" say the old folks |
| [02:25.45] |
It goes to show you never can tell |
| [02:29.32] |
