The Wallflowers - Cry Baby Cry Lyrics

(by The Beatles)

Cry baby cry Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better So cry baby cry The king of Marigold was in the kitchen cooking breakfast for the queen The queen was in the parlor playing piano for the children of the king Cry baby cry Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better So cry baby cry The king was in the garden picking flowers for a friend who came to play The queen was in the playroom painting pictures for the children’s holiday Cry baby cry Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better So cry baby cry The duchess of Kirkcaldy always smiling Arriving late for tea The duke was having problems with a message the local bird and bee Cry baby cry Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better So cry baby cry At twelve o’clock a meeting round the table for a seance in the dark With voices out of nowhere put on especially by the children for a lark Cry baby cry Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better So cry baby cry cry cry cry baby Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better Cry baby cry cry cry cry Make your mother sigh She’s old enough to know better So cry baby cry
