You Never Can Tell

Chuck Berry

It was a teenage wedding, 
and the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre 
did truly love the mademoiselle
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 New Orleans 
to celebrate their anniversary
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 tell
