A salvation army band played
And the children drank lemonade
And the morning lasted all day, all day
And through an open window came
Like Sinatra in a younger day
Pushing the town away, away
Hey ah ma ma ma hey doo-din-dye
Hey ah ma ma ma hey ah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
They say on the stoney ground
And he took a cigarette out
And everyone else came down to listen
It was the winter 1963
It felt that the world would freeze
With John F. Kennedy and the Beatles, yeah yeah yeah
Hey ah ma ma ma hey doo-din-dye
Hey ah ma ma ma hey ah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ah ma ma ma hey doo-din-dye
Hey ah ma ma ma hey ah
They shut the factory down
Hey ma ma ma ma
The evening had turned to rain
We watched the water roll down the drain
As they followed him down to the station
He would never wave goodbye
You could see it written in his eyes
As the train pulled out of sight, bye bye
Hey ah ma ma ma, into the night
Hey ah ma ma ma hey ah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma, take it easy on yourself
Hey ah ma ma ma hey doo-din-dye
Hey ah ma ma ma hey ah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ah ma ma ma hey doo-din-dye
Hey ah ma ma ma hey ah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ah ma ma ma hey doo-din-dye
Hey ah ma ma ma hey ah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
