北欧の風を連想させるメロディと詩が幻想的な１曲。



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, ah

Ah-hey ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-na-ya
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma

They sat on the stony 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, yeah, yeah

Ah-hey ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-na-ya
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma

...All of the work shut down...

The evening 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
As the train rolled out of sight, bye bye

Ah-hey ma ma ma, hey-dee-da-na-ya
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma

Ah-hey ma ma ma, take it easy on yourself
Hey ma ma ma, hey-ay-ay-ay, ah
Life in a northern town
Ah hey ma ma ma ma
