cest la vie

[00:12.40] t was a teenage wedding

[00:15.40] And the old folks wished them well

[00:19.15] You could see that Pierre

[00:22.15] Did truly love the mademoiselle

[00:29.40] And now the young monsieur and madame

[00:30.39] Have rung the chapel bell

[00:33.90] "C'est la vie", say the old folks

[00:35.40] It goes to slow you never can tell

[00:39.15] They furnished off an apartment

[00:42.40] With a two room Roebuck sale

[00:45.89] The coolerator was crammed

[00:48.40] With T.V. dimmers and ginger ale

[00:55.40] But when Pierre found work

[00:56.15] The little money coming worked out well

[00:58.14] "C'est la vie", say the old folks

[01:01.89] It goes to show you never can tell

[01:05.64] They had a hi-fi phono

[01:08.39] Boy, did they let it blast

[01:12.15] Seven hundred little records

[01:14.40] All rocking rhythm and jazz

[01:16.89] But when the sun went down

[01:21.40] The rapid tempo of the music fell

[01:26.15] "C'est la vie", say the old folks

[01:28.40] It goes to show you never can tell

[01:32.65] They bought a souped-up jitney

[02:01.15] T'was a cherry-red fifty nine

[02:04.15] They drove it down to New Orleans

[02:07.89] To celebrate their anniversary

[02:12.15] It was there that Pierre

[02:14.40] Was wedded to the lovely mad'moiselle

[02:19.15] "C'est la vie", say the old folks

[02:21.64] It goes to show you never can tell

[02:25.65] It was a teenage wedding

[02:27.64] And the old folks wished them well

[02:31.89] You could see that Pierre

[02:34.64] Did truly love the mademoiselle

[02:39.15] And now the young monsieur and madame

[02:40.90] Have rung the chapel bell

[02:45.39] "C'est la vie", say the old folks

[02:47.65] It goes to slow you never can tell

[02:52.14] "C'est la vie", say the old folks

[02:54.39] It goes to slow you never can tell

[02:58.90] "C'est la vie", say the old folks

[03:01.15] It goes to slow you never can tell
