Called by
Circle left
Bronc wise
Desmond has a barrel in the market place
Molly is a singer in a band
Four boys star by the right in the middle and turn it around
You do an allemande left come on you weave the ring
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
Swing your girl and then you promenade
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
La la how the life goes on
FIGURE
Heads square thru in the middle, it's 4 hands around
Gonna meet that corner pair and turn thru
The centers left turn thru, come on put centers in
Cast off 3/4, make a line of 4, move up to the middle and back
Pass thru, do a u-turn back, slide thru and you clap your hands
Swing your corner, then you all promenade
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
La la how the life goes on
MIDDLE BREAK
Circle left
Desmond takes a trolly to the jeweller's store
Buys a twenty carat golden ring
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her:
Allemande left and weave the ring
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
Swing your girl and then you promenade
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
La la how the life goes on
CLOSER
Circle left
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:
Allemande left and weave the ring
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
Swing your girl and then you promenade
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
La la how the life goes on
TAG
Ob la di, Ob la da life goes on, Bra
La la how the life goes on
