You Never Can Tell - 1964 Single Version

[00:02.12] It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well
[00:08.11] You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
[00:14.11] And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell
[00:20.24] "C'est la vie," say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
[00:26.66] They furnished off an apartment with a two-room Roebuck sale
[00:32.32] The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale
[00:38.32] But when Pierre found work, the little money comin' worked out well
[00:44.33] "C'est la vie," say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
[00:50.81] They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast
[00:56.67] 700 little records, all rock, rhythm and jazz
[01:02.82] But when the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell
[01:08.93] "C'est la vie," say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
[01:15.23] They bought a souped-up jitney, 'twas a cherry red '53
[01:21.08] They drove it down to Orleans to celebrate the anniversary
[01:27.15] It was there where Pierre was married to the lovely mademoiselle
[01:33.39] "C'est la vie," say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
[01:39.50]
[02:04.14] They had a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well
[02:10.39] You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle
[02:16.37] And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell
[02:22.58] "C'est la vie," say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
[02:26.84]
