Van Morrison - Celtic Ray lyrics

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

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
