Life in a Northern Town The Dream Academy

[Verse 1]
A Salvation Army band played
And the children drunk lemonade
And the morning lasted all day
All day

[Verse 2]
And through an open window came
Like Sinatra in a younger day
Pushing the town away
Ah

[Chorus]
Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma
Dee-doo-din-nie-ya-ya
Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma
Hey-y-yah
Life in a northern town
Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma-ma

[Verse 3]
They sat on the stoney ground
And he took a cigarette out
And everyone else came down
To listen
