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