Song lyrics
Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace 
Molly is the singer in a band 
Desmond say to Molly, girl I like your face 
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand 

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 

Desmond take a trolley to the jewelers store 
Buys a twenty carat golden ring, (rin-ring) 
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door 
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing (sin-sing) 

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 

In a couple of years they 
have built a home sweet home 
With a couple of kids running in the yard 
of Desmond and Molly Jones 

Happy ever after in the market place 
Desmond lets the children lend a hand 
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face 
And in the evening she's still singing with the band 

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 

In a couple of years they 
have built a home sweet home 
With a couple of kids running in the yard 
of Desmond and Molly Jones 

Happy ever after in the market place 
Molly lets the children lend a hand 
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face 
And in the evening she's a singer with the band 

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da 
Life goes on, bra 
La la how the life goes on 

And if you want some fun 
take Ob-la-di-bla-da
