You are

"Obladi,
Oblada"
by John Lennon and Paul McCartney
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 bra
La la how the life goes on
Ob la di ob la da life goes on bra
La la how the life goes on
Desmond takes a trolley to the jewellers 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.
( Repeat
Blue Verse Above )
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
( Repeat Blue Verse &
Green Verse Above )
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
( Repeat Blue Verse Above )
And if you want some fun - take ob la di bla da.
