Текст Rick Springfield – Life In A Northern Town

A Salvation Army band played
And the children drank lemonade
And the morning lasted all day,
All day

Chant:
Ah hey ma ma ma
Life in a northern town.

They sat on the stoney ground
And he took 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.»

Chant:
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

Chant:
Ah hey ma ma ma
Life in a northern town.
Ah hey ma ma ma
Life in a northern town.
