Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
La la how the life goes on
La la how the life goes on
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face
And in the evening she's a singer with the band
Desmond takes a trolley to the jewelry store
In a couple of years they have built a home, sweet home
Molly lets the children lend a hand
La la how the life goes on
Happy ever after in the market place
Buys a twenty carat golden ring
La la how the life goes on
La la how the life goes on
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
Yeah, ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
Of Desmond and Molly Jones, hey
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
Desmond says to Molly, "Girl I like your face"
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing
In a couple of years they have built a home, sweet home
La la how the life goes on
Yeah, ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
Happy ever after in the market place
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
La la how the life goes on
Yeah, ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
Of Desmond and Molly Jones
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Desmond lets the children lend a hand
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on brah
La la how the life goes on
And in the evening she still sings it with the band
