Emerson, Lake & Palmer 04 C'Est la Vie Lyrics

C'est La Vie Emmelou Harris
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 slow you never can tell

They furnished off an apartment,With a two room roebuck sale
The coolerator was crammed,With t.v. dimmers 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 rockin' rhythm and jazz
But when the sun went down,The volume 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,was a cherry-red fifty nine
They drove it down to new Orleans,To celebrate their anniversary
It was there that pierre,Was wedded to the lovely mad'moiselle
"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 mademoiselle
And now the young monsieur and madame
Have rung the chapel bell
"c'est la vie", say the old folks,It goes to slow you never can tell
"c'est la vie", say the old folks,It goes to slow you never can tell
