CRY BABY CRY
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 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 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 as 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
