Lyrics Marmalade – Ob–La–Di, Ob–La–Da
Text:
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, whoa
La, la, how the life goes on
Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace
Molly is the singer in a band
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand
«Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, whoa
La, la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, whoa
La, la, how the life goes on»
Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweler 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, whoa
La, la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, whoa
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 marketplace
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, no
La, la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, whoa
La, la, how the life goes on»
In a couple of years they have built a home, sweet home
Of Desmond and Molly Jones (Desmond and Molly)
Happy ever after in the marketplace
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, whoa
La, la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on, whoa
La, la, how the life goes on»
And if you want some jam
Say ob-la-di-bla-da, hey!
