Lyrics:

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

Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, how the life goes on
Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, how the life goes on

Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweller's store
Buys a twenty carat golden ring (Ring)
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing (Sing)

Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, how the life goes on
Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, 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 (Hahahaha)

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
Yes!

Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, how the life goes on
(Hey!) Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, 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
Yeah!

Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, how the life goes on
(Yeah!) Obladi oblada, life goes on, bra
Lala, how the life goes on

And if you want some fun
Take obladi oblada
