This is about a teenage couple getting married and staying together. Many of Berry's songs are written from the perspective of young people.
This was one of the new batch of hits Berry produced after being released from his 1962-63 prison incarceration.
Berry invented a new word for the lyrics: "Coolerator." It means "refrigerator."
@kmk_natasha Chuck Berry did not invent the word "Coolerator." How ridiculous. A Coolerator was once popular brand of refrigerator, made by The Coolerator Company of Duluth, MN. The Coolerator Company began in 1908 as the Duluth Show Case Company. In 1945, the Coolerator Company again began to manufacture refrigerators and freezers. In 1946, the first electrical refrigerators were made... LONG before this song was written or released.

@kmk_natasha My parents had a Coolerator brand "Ice Box" from the middle 1930s until 1951 when it was replaced with an electric Nash Kelvinator (sp?) refrigerator. I remember a card being placed in the kitchen window facing the ally when Ice was needed. A truck from Citizen's Ice driving along the alley would stop and deliver more ice. Water from the melting ice in the ice box would flow via a hose through the kitchen floor to a bucket in the basement directly below the ice box.
