The 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-nie-ya
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-y-yah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
They sat on the stoney ground
And he took a cigarette out
And everyone else came down to listen
It was the winter 1963
It felt like the world would freeze
With John F. Kennedy
And The Beatles
Yeah, yeah
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-doo-din-nie-ya
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-y-yah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-doo-din-nie-ya
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-y-yah
They shut the factory down
Hey ma ma ma ma
The evening turned to rain
Watched the water roll down the drain
As we followed him down to the station
He never would wave goodbye
You could see it written in his eyes
As the train pulled out of sight... bye-bye
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-doo-din-nie-ya
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-y-yah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
(Take it easy on yourselves)
Hey ah-ma ma hey-doo-din-nie-ya
Hey ah-mama ma hey-y-yah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-doo-din-nie-ya
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-y-yah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-doo-din-nie-ya
Hey ah-ma ma ma hey-y-yah
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
