Music we're working on

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da: Words and Music by John Lennon and Paul McCartney


V1. 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


V2. 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 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


B. 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


V3. Happy ever after in the marketplace, 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. 


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.

Oh Santianna gained the day

Away Santianna

And Santianna gained the day

Along the plains of Mexic

  Away Santianna!
  Heave her up and away we’ll go,

And General Taylor ran away

Along the plains of Mexico

Oh Santianna fought for fame

Away Santianna

And Santianna Gaind a name

Along the plains of Mexico

Away Santianna

Till he ran afoul of Uncle Sam 

Along the plains of Mexico

Oh Santiannas day is o’er

Away Santianna

Santianna will fight no more

Along the plains of mexico


Chorus
