Eleventh Earl of Mar - Genesis

Eleventh Earl of Mar è una fantastica canzone che i Genesis hanno inserito nel loro album Wind & Wuthering. Ecco il testo. The sun had been up for a couple of hours, 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 heros, with blisters on their feet. Eleventh Earl of Mar Somehow got them all this far. Daddy! You Promised, You Promised. See the Stewart are 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 come the bishop all dressed up
