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 take a trolley to the jewelers stores
Buy 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
In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home
With a couple of kids running in the year of Desmond and Molly Jones
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
Happy ever after in the market place
Molly lets the children land a hand
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face
And in the evening she's a singer with the band
And if you want some fun, take ob-la-di ob-la-da
