The Dream Academy

Life In A Northern Town

A Salvation Army Band played

And Children drunk 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

Ah

Ah hey ma ma ma

Life in a northern town.

They sat on the stoney ground

And he took out a cigarette out

And everyone else came down

To listen.

He said "In winter 1963

It felt like the world would freeze

With John F. Kennedy

And The Beatles."

Ah hey ma ma ma

Life in a northern town.

Ah hey ma ma ma

All the work shut down.

The evening had turned to rain

Watch the water roll down the drain,

As we followed him down

To the station

And though he never would wave goodbye,

You could see it written in his eyes

As the train pulled out of sight

Bye-bye

Ah hey ma ma ma

Life in a northern town.

Ah hey ma ma ma

Life in a northern town.
