Father to Son (Live at the Rainbow, London, 31st March 1974)

A word in your ear
From father to son
Hear the word that I say
I fought with you
Fought on your side
Long before you were born
Kings will be crowned
The word goes around
Father to son, to son

Every now and again
Time after time I keep a calling you
Warning you on your way, yes
Don't destroy what you see
Your country to be
Just keep building on the ground that’s been won
Kings will be crowned
The word goes around
Father to son, to son
Hear I say

Yes
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Our family song

Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Oooh, yeah

Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do
Then we move along
Along, oooh

Take this letter that I give you
Hold it sonny, and hold it high!
You won't understand a word that's in it
But you’ll write it out again before you die
Oh, yeah

(guitar solo)

Oooh, oooh
Tooh-dih, Tooh-dih, Tooh-dih, oh yeah
I'm gonna write you out a letter ...

Oooh, oooh
A word in your ear
From father to son
Funny you don't hear a single word I say
But my letter to you
Will stay by your side
Through the years, though the loneliness has gone

Sing if you will
But the air you breathe
I live to give you
Father to son
Father to, father to
Father to son

Freddie: "Thank you; thank you... lovelies. Good evening; ooh! So you've all come out in force -- How'r you feeling? I think I've seen most of you before; in fact, I've seen nearly all of you before, ha, ha, ha, we'd like to do something from our ’Queen II’ album now, would you like (that)? Yes, you would, it's a number entitled... (Continues onto next song "Ogre Battle")
