[00:22.64] A Salvation Army band played

[00:26.52] And the children drank lemonade

[00:30.63] And the morning lasted all day

[00:34.50] All day

[00:38.24] And through an open window came

[00:42.08] Like Sinatra in a younger day

[00:46.44] Pushing the town away

[00:50.58] Ah

[00:54.19] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[00:56.70] Dee-doo-din-nie-ya-ya

[00:58.36] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[01:00.39] Hey-y-yah

[01:04.32] Life in a northern town

[01:06.31] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma-ma

[01:09.98] They sat on the stoney ground

[01:13.86] And he took a cigarette out

[01:18.00] And everyone else came down

[01:21.47] To listen

[01:25.27] He said, "In winter 1963

[01:29.71] It felt like the world would freeze

[01:33.63] With John F. Kennedy

[01:37.08] And The Beatles"

[01:40.41] Yeah, yeah, yeah

[01:41.46] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[01:44.02] Dee-doo-din-nie-ya-ya

[01:45.47] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[01:47.86] Hey-y-yah

[01:51.74] Life in a northern town

[01:53.52] Hey-ma-ma-ma-ma

[01:57.24] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[01:59.80] Dee-doo-din-nie-ya-ya

[02:01.40] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[02:03.54] Hey-y-yah

[02:07.50] All the work shut down

[02:13.35] The evening turned to rain (The evening turned to rain)

[02:16.86] Watched the water roll down the drain

[02:20.61] As we followed him down

[02:24.21] To the station

[02:28.13] And though he never would wave goodbye

[02:32.54] You could see it written in his eyes

[02:36.52] As the train rolled out of sight

[02:40.64] Bye-bye

[02:48.61] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[02:50.90] Dee-doo-din-nie-ya-ya

[02:52.50] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[02:54.64] Hey-y-yah

[02:58.62] Life in a northern town

[03:00.48] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma (Life in a northern town)

[03:04.46] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[03:06.59] Dee-doo-din-nie-ya-ya

[03:08.45] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma (All the work shut down)

[03:10.58] Hey-y-yah

[03:14.18] Life in a northern town

[03:16.17] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma (Where ya goin' now?)

[03:20.15] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[03:22.42] Dee-doo-din-nie-ya-ya

[03:24.28] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma

[03:26.14] Hey-y-yah

[03:32.25] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma-ma

[03:34.38] Take it easy on yourself

[03:39.95] Ah-hey-ma-ma-ma
