Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da

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 (La la la la la la la la)
Life goes on, bra (La la la la la)
La la, how the life goes on

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

Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweller'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 (La la la la la la la la)
Life goes on, bra (La la la la la)
La la, how the life goes on

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

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

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

And if you want some fun
Sing ob-la-di-bla-da
Hey
