Boy Blue [album Version] Lyrics - The Studio Albums: 1973-1977 - Electric Light Orchestra

Hey Boy Blue, can't you hear all 

the noise. 

It's for you, all the town's waiting 

there. 

Let us go, there's a show like you ain't 

seen before 

Welcome home, where you been all 

these years, 

Look around, all the crowd is in tears, 

It's so good to see you in the streets 

of your town. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

I've seen bold knights, dropping 

down like flies, 

I've seen kings, rolling in the mire, 

I've seen God, point the finger of 

doom to our foes. 

I have fought in the holiest wars, 

I have smashed, some of the holiest jaws 

I've been jailed, been impaled, and 

been dragged through the world. 

One thing, I have learned through 

these years, 

Is that no man, should be stricken 

with fear 

It should be that he walks with no 

care in the world. 

So my friends, who are gathered here 

today, 

Hear this clear, for I'll not further say, 

That no man, shall cause me to take 

up arms again. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back. 

Hey Boy Blue is back.
