Summer vacation, North Ontario
An old man telling stories
To his young grandson
CHORUS
The Northern Lights might find a child
And carry him away
To the shining spiral arms of the milky way
Aurora Borealis, Aurora Illinois
That’s where my Dad lives
Lied the lonely boy
Go and tell your Dad then
Go ahead and run
Laugh laughs the bully
Knows he hasn’t got one
CHORUS
The Northern Lights might find a child
And carry him away
To the shining spiral arms of the milky way
But the Big Dipper he just sits up there
And never says a thing
About the kid from Lewisburg Tennessee
Aurora Borealis, Southern Tennessee
One in a million
I saw it on the TV
Unrelated items
Local lost and found
One quiet young man
Not a trace or a sound
CHORUS
The Northern Lights might find a child
And carry him away
To the shining spiral arms of the milky way
But the Big Dipper he just sits up there
And never says a thing
About the kid from Lewisburg Tennessee
Northern Lights Seen Over Lewisburg Tennessee
