Eleventh Earl Of Mar

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 wasnt all.
Eleventh earl of mar
Couldnt 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.

A voice screams seems to be calling
The face turns features are burning.
Daddy, youve got to go!
See the fifteen going by,
Tell the lairds and the lords

And once again you stand alone.
Bury your memories bury your friends,
