Desmond has a sparrow in the marketplace, Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond says to Molly, girl I like your face, and Molly says this and she takes him by the hand
Ob-la-dee, ob-la-da, life goes on, la-la-la, how the life goes on
Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweler'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
Ob-la-dee, ob-la-da, life goes on, la-la-la, how the life goes on
Ob-la-dee, ob-la-da, life goes on, la-la-la, how the life goes on
In a couple of years, they have built a home sweet home
Music
A couple of kids running in the yard, Desmond and Molly Jones
Happy ever after in the marketplace, Desmond lets the children lend a hand
Molly stays at home and does a pretty face, and in the evening she still sings it with the band
Yes, Ob-la-dee, ob-la-da, life goes on
Music

We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
