It was a teenage wedding, and the old folks wished them well 
                                                    E    E7

The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale,
         E                                                     E7

They had a hi-fi phono, boy, did they let it blast 
                                                   E   E7
Seven hundred little records, all rock, rhythm and jazz 
             E                                           E7

It was there that Pierre was married to the lovely mademoiselle
