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 brah

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah

La-la how the life goes on

Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweler's stores

Buys a twenty carat golden ring (Golden ring?)

Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door

And as he gives it to her she begins to sing(Sing)

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah

La-la how their life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah

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 with the band

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah

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 brah

La-la how the life goes on

Ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on brah

La-la how the life goes on

And if you want some fun

Sing ob-la-di ob-la-da
