The Beatles - Cry Baby Cry lyrics

[The Beatles - Cry Baby Cry lyrics]

Cry, baby, cry make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better

The king of Marigold was in the kitchen
Cooking breakfast for the queen
The queen was in the parlour
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 Kircaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea
The duke was having problems
With a message at 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 specially 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
So cry, baby, cry cry and cry and cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry

Can you take me back where I came from?
Can you take me back?
Can you take me back where I came from?
Brother, can you take me back?
Can you take me back?
Mm, can you take me where I came from?
Can you take me back?
