    Description

    From Wikipedia:
    Rida Johnson Young wrote the lyrics of the song and Victor Herbert composed the music. The sheet music was published by M. Witmark & Sons of New York City in 1910.
    This song was originally part of the score of the film "Naughty Marietta", a 1935 American musical romance film based on the 1910 operetta of the same name by Victor Herbert. Jeanette MacDonald stars as a princess who flees an arranged marriage. She sails for New Orleans and is rescued from pirates by Captain Richard Warrington (Nelson Eddy).
    The song "Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life" was used in Mel Brooks' 1974 comedy Young Frankenstein, with parts of the refrain sung by the characters played by Madeline Kahn and Teri Garr.
    It was also used in the musical Thoroughly Modern Millie.
    In the 4th season episode "Archie The Gambler" of All In the Family, "Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life" is sung by cast members Jean Stapleton, Rob Reiner, and Sally Struthers.
