Thanks for the replies.  I'd been using TextScript outside-staff-priority with 
no success.  Not sure why script works, but it's solved my problem.

This is driving me nuts.  Is it possible to get a fermata closer to the 
stave than markup?  I've tried over-riding Script.outside-staff-priority, 
TextScript.outside-staff-priority and various horizontal and vertical 
padding values, but the fermata always goes above the text for me.

MNWE:

{
  b'1^ \fermata ^\markup {"Some text"} \bar "|."
}




  Hello,

  I believe this works:

  \version "2.19.80"

  {
    \override Script.outside-staff-priority = #1 % allows Script under 
TextScript
    \override Script.outside-staff-padding = #0 % removes the extra padding
    b'1^ \fermata ^\markup {"Some text"} \bar "|."
  }
