Life In A Northern Town by Sugarland
Life In A Northern Town lyrics
Songwriters: Gabriel, Gilbert; Laird-Clowes, Nick;
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
Heyya ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-naya
Heyya ma ma ma, heyya
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
He sat on the stony ground
And he took a cigarette out
And everyone else came down to listen
It was the winter 1963
I thought that the world would freeze
With John F. Kennedy and The Beatles"
Yeah yeah yeah
Heyya ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-naya
Heyya ma ma ma, heyya
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Heyya ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-naya
Heyya ma ma ma, heyya
They shut the factory down
Hey ma ma ma ma
The evening had turned to rain
Watched the water roll down the drain
As they 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
Heyya ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-naya
Heyya ma ma ma, heyya
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma, take it easy on yourself
Heyya ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-naya
Heyya ma ma ma, heyya
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Heyya ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-naya
Heyya ma ma ma, heyya
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
Heyya ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-naya
Heyya ma ma ma, heyya
Life in a northern town
Hey ma ma ma ma
