Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da

Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace

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

La, la, how the life goes on

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da

Life goes on, brah

La, la, how the life goes on

Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweler's store

Buys a 20 carat golden ring (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)

Life goes on, brah (la, la, la, la, la, la)

La, la, how the life goes on

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da (la, la, la, la, la, la)

Life goes on, brah (la, 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 (ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)

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, brah

La, la, how the life goes on (hey)

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da

Life goes on, brah

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 (hey)

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 (yeah)

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da

Life goes on, brah

La, la, how the life goes on (hey)

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da

Life goes on, brah

La, la, how the life goes on

And if you want some fun

Take Ob-la-di-bla-da

Thank you
