Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry
[Verse 5]
The Duchess of Kirkcaldy always smiling
And arriving late for tea
The duke was having problems
With a message at the local bird and bee
[Verse 6]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry
[Verse 9]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry
[Verse 10]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry
[Verse 11]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better
So cry, baby, cry
[Verse 12]
Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better....
