Songtekst

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 jeweller's store
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 (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, yeah

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 (Arm, leg)
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face
And in the evening she still sings it with the band

Yes, ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on

Hey, 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 a home, sweet home
With a couple of kids running in the yard
Of Desmond and Molly Jones

Yeah, happy ever after in the market place
Molly lets the children lend a hand (Foot)
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face
And in the evening she's a singer with the band

Yeah, ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on

Yes, ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, bra
La-la, how the life goes on

And if you want some fun
Take ob-la-di ob-la-da

Thank you, uh, ha ha ha
