Desmond has his barrow in the market place
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond says 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 brah
Lala how the life goes on
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah
Lala how the life goes on
Desmond takes a trolley to the jewelry store
Buys a twenty carat golden ring ring
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to singsing
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah
Lala how the life goes on
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah
Lala 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 Ha ha ha ha ha
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 still sings it with the band
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah
Lala how the life goes on
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah
Lala 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 brah
Lala how the life goes on
Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah
Lala how the life goes on
And if you want some fun
Take Ob-La-Di-la-do
