Desmond has his 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! Lala how the life goes on. Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, brah! Lala how the life goes on.
Desmond takes a trolley to the jewelry 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, life goes on, brah! Lala how the life goes on Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, brah! Lala 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 (Ha ha ha ha ha)
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, life goes on, brah! Lala how the life goes on. Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, brah! Lala how the life goes on.
