G Am F G Cry baby cry make your mother sigh Em A7 F she's old enough to know better Em The king of Marigold was in the kitchen C7 G cooking breakfast for the queen Em The queen was in the parlour playing piano C7 For the children of the king CHORUS: G Am F G Cry baby cry make your mother sigh Em A7 F G 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 childrens holiday ...CHORUS 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 ...CHORUS 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...CHORUS TWICE (end on G)
