Google AI Overview

“You Never Can Tell” by Chuck Berry tells the story of a teenage couple’s life, from their wedding to their first years of marriage and their anniversary trip to New Orleans. The lyrics use the recurring French phrase, “C’est la vie” (that’s life), to express the idea that you can’t know what’s going to happen next, despite best-laid plans. The song’s message is about the unpredictable nature of life and how things can work out unexpectedly, even with humble beginnings.
The story: The song follows a young couple, Pierre and his “mademoiselle,” who have a teenage wedding.
Early struggles: They furnish an apartment on a budget from a “two room Roebuck sale” and eat TV dinners, but things improve when Pierre finds a job.
Building a life: They buy a hi-fi stereo and a collection of records, showing their growing prosperity.
The anniversary trip: To celebrate their anniversary, they take a road trip in a cherry-red ’53 “jitney” to New Orleans, where they were married.
The message: Each verse concludes with the refrain, “C’est la vie,” say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell, highlighting that life’s twists and turns are unpredictable.

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
They bought a souped-up jitney
Was a cherry red ’53
And drove it down to Orleans
To celebrate their anniversary
It was there where Pierre
Was wedded to the lovely madamoiselle
“C’est la vie,” say the old folks
It goes to show, you never can tell

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]
They had 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
