Jerry Garcia Band – You Never Can Tell Lyrics
Artist: Jerry Garcia Band
Song: 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
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 refrigerator was jammed with TV dinners and ginger ale
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 bought a souped-up jitney, ’twas a cherry red ’53
Went down to Orleans to celebrate the 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
They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast
Seven hundred little records, all rock, rhythm and jazz
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 had a souped-up jitney, ’twas a cherry red ’53
Went down to Orleans to celebrate the 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
It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well
You could tell Pierre did truly love his mademoiselle
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
“C’est la vie” say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
