Life In A Northern Town - The Dream Academy |
| [00:22.35] |
The Salvation Army band played |
| [00:25.83] |
And the children drunk lemonade |
| [00:29.82] |
And the morning lasted all day, all day |
| [00:38.23] |
And through an open window came |
| [00:41.57] |
Like Sinatra in a younger day |
| [00:45.80] |
Pushing the town away, oh |
| [00:53.87] |
hey Ah ma ma mommy doo-din-nie-ya |
| [00:57.75] |
Ah hey ma ma ma hey-y-yah |
| [01:03.84] |
Life in a northern town |
| [01:06.26] |
Ah hey ma ma ma ma |
| [01:09.71] |
They sat on the stoney ground |
| [01:13.28] |
And he took a cigarette out |
| [01:17.33] |
And everyone else came down to listen |
| [01:24.90] |
He said in winter 1963 |
| [01:28.99] |
It felt like the world would freeze |
| [01:32.72] |
With John F. Kennedy |
| [01:36.70] |
And The Beatles |
| [01:40.59] |
Yeah, yeah |
| [01:41.50] |
Ah hey ma ma mommy doo-din-nie-ya |

| [01:57.05] |
Ah hey ma ma ma |
| [01:59.04] |
Ah hey ma ma ma hey-y-yah |
| [02:08.05] |
All the work shut down |
| [02:13.38] |
The evening turned to rain |
| [02:16.47] |
Watched the water roll down the drain |
| [02:20.40] |
As we followed him down to the station |
| [02:27.87] |
And though he never would wave goodbye |
| [02:31.90] |
You could see it written in his eyes |
| [02:36.08] |
As the train rolled out of sight bye bye |
| [02:47.53] |
Ah hey ma ma mommy doo-din-nie-ya |
| [02:51.76] |
