Lyrics for Song: Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
Lyrics for Album: Anthology 3
Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond say to Molly, girl I like you 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 take a trolley to the jewelers store
Buys a twenty carat golden ring, (rin-ring)
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing (sin-sing)
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
Yeah, 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's a singer with the band
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
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
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
And if you want some fun
take Ob-la-di-bla-da

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
Released by The Beatles in 1968, 'Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da' stands as a vibrant example of the band's psychedelic pop experimentation during the late 1960s. Featuring a distinctive, repetitive chant and a lively, syncopated rhythm, the track showcases Paul McCartney's songwriting alongside John Lennon's contributions to the melody. Originally recorded in London for the *Yellow Submarine* soundtrack, the song was later included on the *Anthology 3* compilation. Its upbeat tempo and playful lyrics reflect the group's desire to move beyond the somber tones of their previous era, embracing a more whimsical and dance-oriented sound that remains a staple of their discography. |
