Cry baby cry make your mother sigh

she's old enough to know better

The king of Marigold was in the kitchen

        Em6                 C7  G

cooking breakfast for the queen

    Em               Em+7             Em7

The queen was in the parlour playing piano

            Em6          C7

For the children of the king



CHORUS:

 G       Am    F               G

Cry baby cry make your mother sigh

      Em7                   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 Em)



 Fm

Can you take me back where are people, can you take me back

Can you take me back where are people, brother can you take me back

Can you take me back?

Oh can you take me where are people, can you take me back?
