Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace

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 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 takes a trolley

to the jeweler's store

Buys a twenty carat golden ring

Takes it back to Molly

waiting at the door

And as he gives it to

her she begins to 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 still

sings it 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 he'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

sing ob la di bla da
