Words and music by chuck berry<br><br>It was a teenage wedding and the old folks wished 'em well<br>You could see that pierre did truly love the mademoiselle<br>And now the young monsieur and madam have rung the chapel bell<br>C'est la vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell<br><br>They finished off an apartment with a two-room roebuck sale<br>The coolerator was jammed with tv dinners and ginger ale<br>And when pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well<br>C'est la vie say the old folks it goes to show you never can tell<br><br>They had a hi-fi phono, boy did they let it blast<br>Seven hundred little records, all blues, rock, rhythm, and jazz<br>But when the sun went down, the volume went down as well<br>C'est la vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell<br><br>They bought a souped-up jitney, it was a cherry red '53<br>And drove it down to new orleans to celebrate their anniversary<br>It was there where pierre was wedded to the lovely mademoiselle<br>C'est la vie say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell<br><br>They had a teenage wedding and the old folks wished 'em well<br>You could see that pierre did truly love the mademoiselle<br>And now the young monsieur and madam have rung the chapel bell
