Cry For A Shadow

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 childrens 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

Cry baby cry

Cry cry 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
