Written by:Gilbert Gabriel/Nick Laird Clowes[00:00:01]
A Salvation Army band played[00:00:23]
And the children drank lemonade[00:00:27]
And the morning lasted all day all day[00:00:31]
And through an open window came[00:00:39]
Like sinatra in a younger day[00:00:42]
Pushing the town away away[00:00:47]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:00:55]
He didn't die[00:00:57]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:00:58]
Life in a northern town[00:01:05]
Ah hey ma ma ma ma[00:01:07]
They sat on the stoney ground[00:01:10]
And he took a cigarette out[00:01:14]
And everyone else came down to listen[00:01:18]
He said in winter 1963[00:01:25]
It felt like the world would freeze[00:01:30]
With John F. Kennedy[00:01:34]
And The Beatles[00:01:37]
Yeah yeah yeah[00:01:41]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:01:42]
He didn't die[00:01:44]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:01:46]
Life in a northern town[00:01:52]
Ah hey ma ma ma ma[00:01:54]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:01:58]
He didn't die[00:02:00]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:02:02]
All the work shut down[00:02:08]
The evening had turned to rain[00:02:13]
Watch the water roll down the drain[00:02:17]
As we followed down to the station[00:02:21]
And though he never would wave goodbye[00:02:29]
You could see it written in his eyes[00:02:33]
As the train rolled out of sight byebye[00:02:37]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:02:49]
He didn't die[00:02:51]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:02:53]
Life in a northern town[00:02:59]
Ah hey ma ma ma ma[00:03:01]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:03:05]
Into the night[00:03:07]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:03:09]
Life in a northern town[00:03:15]
Ah hey ma ma ma ma[00:03:17]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:03:20]
Into the night[00:03:23]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:03:24]
Ah hey ma ma ma ma[00:03:32]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:03:36]
Into the night[00:03:39]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:03:40]
Ah hey ma ma ma ma[00:03:48]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:03:52]
He didn't die[00:03:54]
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah[00:03:56]
Ah hey ma ma ma ma[00:04:04]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:04:08]
He didn't die[00:04:10]
Ah hey ma ma ma[00:04:12]
