Eleventh Earl of Mar - Steve Hackett
The sun had been up for a couple of hours

It covered the ground with a layer of gold

Spirits were high and the raining had stopped

The larder was low but boy that wasn't all
Eleventh Earl of Mar

Couldn't get them very far
Daddy Oh Daddy you promised

Out on the road in the direction of Perth

Backwards and forwards in a circle they went
Found a city half open and ready to greet

The conquering heroes with blisters on their feet
Eleventh Earl of Mar
Somehow got them all this far
Daddy You Promised You Promised

See the Stewart all dressed up
He's got eyes in the back of his head

Who came in a cockleshell boat
That could only just float

Couldn't even lift a sword

Dressed too fine and smelling of wine

Daddy you've got to go

Here comes the bishop all dressed up
He's gonna bless you if you're ready to pay

One wave of his funny old stick

There's a band of light across your eyes

Waited a week still they hadn't appeared
That glorious timing that everyone feared
So they're riding along on a crest of a wave

They're headed for London

And that will be their grave
Eleventh Earl of Mar
Well he couldn't get them down that far
Daddy I'm waiting I'm waiting

Time to go to bed now

Never seems too keen
To be a guest now
In a house of dreams

Flying from a hillside

Beckoning the trees

A sailboat's awning
Mimicking the breeze

I'm fighting gravity falling

My Daddy won't let them get me
A voice screams seems to be calling

The face turns features are burning

Daddy you got to go

You've got to go

See the fifteen going by

Tell the Lairds and the Lords

They're running backwards today

And once again you stand alone

Bury your memories bury your friends

Leave it alone for a year or two
Till the stories go hazy and the legends come true

Then do it again Some things never end
Eleventh Earl of Mar
Won't be going very far

You Promised You Promised

You Promised

DADDY
