When Lewellen comes around
And he goes through market town
You´ll be on the Celtic Ray,
Are you ready?

When McManus comes around
On his early morning round
Cryin´ Heron ´a´ lay
You´ll be on the Celtic Ray.

Ireland, Scotland, Brittany, and Wales,
I can hear those ancient voices calling,
Children, children

When the coalbrick man comes round,
On a cold November day
You´ll be on the Celtic Ray,
Are you ready?

Ireland, Scotland, Cornwall and Wales,
I can hear those ancient voices calling,
"Children, children, children".

Listen Jimmy, I wanna go home.
Listen Jimmy I wanna go home.
I´ve been away from the Ray too long.

I´ve been away from the Ray too long.
In the early mornin´, we´ll go walkin´ where
The light comes shining through
On the Celtic Ray,
