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 "Heron 'a' lay"
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 Jimmy! I want to go home.
Listen Jimmy! I want to go home.
I've been away from the Ray too long
I've been away from the Ray too long
