Lyrics:
(Lennon/McCartney)
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, oh
La la, how the life goes on
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, oh
La la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, oh
La la, how the life goes on
Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweller's store
Buys a twenty carat golden ring
Takes it back to Molly peaking at the door
And as he gives it to her, she begins to sing
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, oh
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
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, oh
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 - Desmond and Molly
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
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, oh
La la, how the life goes on ....
And if you want some jam - (ha-ha-ha ....) - say ob-la-di-bla-da, hey
various re-makes with slightly different lyrics
originally performed by the Beatles (1968)
