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 hifi 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
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
