Desmond had 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.
{start_of_chorus}
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on bra.
La la how the life goes on. (repeat)
{end_of_chorus}
Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweller`s 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.
[NC]In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home
[NC]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.
