Desmond has a 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 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 wating at the door,
And as he gives it to her she beging 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
home, sweet home.
With a couple of [bad word] 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 a singer with the band. Yes!

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
home, sweet home.
With a couple of [bad word] in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones.

Happy ever after in the the market place
Molly lets the children lend a 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.

Ob-la-di bla-da
