Celtic Ray Lyrics

When Lewellyn comes around
And he goes through Market Town
You'll be on the Celtic Ray
Are you ready?
When McMannus comes around
On his early morning rounds
Crying Hey...
You'll be on the Celtic Ray
Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales
I can hear the mothers' voices calling
Children, children, children
When the coal brick man comes 'round
On a cold November day
You'll be on the Celtic Ray
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales
I can hear the mothers' voices calling
Children, children, children
Listen to me! I want to go home.
Listen to me! I want to go home.
I've been away from the Ray too long
I've been away from the Ray too long
All over Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales
I can hear the mothers' voices calling
Children, children, come home children
Children, come home on the Celtic Ray
In the early morning we'll go walking
where the light comes shining through
On the Celtic Ray
Come home children
Come home on the Celtic Ray
