The Marmalade is a Scottish pop rock band from the east end of Glasgow, originally formed in 1961 as The Gaylords, and then later billed as Dean Ford and the Gaylords. In 1966 they changed the band name to The Marmalade. The most successful period for the band, in terms of UK chart success, was between 1968 and 1972. From the early 1970s, after the original players began to drift away, the band evolved with many further changes and still exists to this day.

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
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
Obladi oblada life goes on brahhh
Lala how the life goes on
Obladi Oblada life goes on brahhh
Lala how the life goes on
Lala how the life goes on
Obladi Oblada life goes on brahhh
Lala how the life goes on
Desmond takes a trolley to the jewelry store
Buys a twenty carot golden ring
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing
Buys a twenty carot golden ring
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing
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
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 his pretty face
And in the evening she’s a singer with the band
In a couple of years they have built a home sweet home,
Molly stays at home and does his pretty face
And in the evening she’s a singer with the band
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
Molly lets the children lend a hand
Of Desmond and Molly Jones
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
And if you want some fun, take Ob-la-di-bla-da
And in the evening she’s a singer with the band
And if you want some fun, take Ob-la-di-bla-da
