The chorus went::-
Oh Grimbsy, a thousand delights
Couldn't match the sweet sights
Of my Grimsby
Oh England you're fair
But you're none to compare with my Grimsby
Do you know of any other english towns in songs?
No cities please.

"Scarborough Fair" by Simon and Garfunkel.
"A Day in the Life" by the Beatles mentions Blackburn.
"Keynsham" The Bonzo Dog Band.
Also check out "Letter from America" by the Proclaimers, it lists at least a dozen small towns from around Scotland.
