Desmond has a barrow in the marketplace
Molly is the singer in a band
Desmond say 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 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

Yes, it is the Beatles: Oh-Bla-Di
Oh bla Di, Oh bla Da, Life goes On, Bra
La la how the life goes on (x2)
Desmond was a seller in the marketplace place
Molly was the singer in a band
Desmond said to Molly girl i like your face,
And Molly saiys this as she takes him by the hand ...
etc
(I cannot believe that one of the greatest bands of all time wrote, "Oh
Bla Di, Oh Bla da, life Goes on, Bra however?!)

that someone is correct. the song is called "life goes on," and it is by the
beatles. however, it was not them performing it on the show, but i couldn't
tell you who it was. hope this helps!

Irishman and proud of it), although if bra suits you, whatever floats your
boat.

make him English, not Irish.
2) It says "bra" on the lyric poster which accompanies the Beatles album
commonly referred to as "The White Album"

Don't remember hearing that the version used in the show's intro was done by
the cast but then I really never paid attention to it too closely. Just found
the song's use cool especially in light of Family MAtters having to drop Louie
Armstrong's What A Wonderful World after the first couple seasons.
Oh and as for the real reason I'm posting, that actress's name you're looking
for is Patti Lupone. Can't blame you for not remembering though. Life Goes On
is the only memorable non-Broadway thing I can think of her ever having been
in.

discovered that Chris Burke (who played Corky) had a children's album out
and had this song on it.

who were the only one to release the song as a single (and to have a big
success with it), as the Beatles didn't release it (Lennon thought it was
not worthy as a Beatles song)

Ya mean that lovely rendition of said song by the cast of the TV show
"Life Goes On" never made its way onto a record or CD? :(

In a previous article, archan...@hotmail.com ("Erez Schatz") says:

O-bla-di, O bla da, most certainly *was* issued by the Beatles.

I think the key phrase in the previous post is *as a single*. It may
have been included only on one of the Beatles' albums but never released
on 45.

"Get a Job" is a direct ripoff of the melody to this song.
