By the children for a lark...CHORUS TWICE (end on Em)

The Beatles - Cry Baby Cry
The Beatles - Cry Baby Cry Copyright - 1968 EMI Records Ltd. "Cry Baby Cry" is a song by The Beatles from their self titled album, more commonly known as The White Album. "Cry Baby Cry" is the final song on the album featuring the group's instrumental presence. The song features a brief segment often referred to as "Can You Take Me Back". History When asked about "Cry Baby Cry" in 1980, Lennon replied, "Not mine. A piece of rubbish." The "Not mine" part is either a mistake in Lennon's memory, an error in the transcription of the interviewer's audio tape of the interview, or Lennon sarcastically disowning the song. Paul McCartney said, "Cry Baby Cry was another of John's songs from India,", although demos of the song indicate it was written in late 1967, before the Beatles went to India. The original lyrics were "Cry baby cry, make your mother buy." Lennon said he got the words from an advertisement. The "Duchess of Kirkcaldy" mentioned in the song was a creation of Lennon's, possibly inspired by the Beatles' gig in the town of the same name in 1963. George Martin plays harmonium on this track (introduced after the first statement of "make your mother sigh". This was the same harmonium Lennon used on "We Can Work It Out" and that Martin had previously used on "The Word". Can You Take Me Back "Cry Baby Cry" includes a very short unrelated song performed by McCartney, whose most prominent line is "Can you take me back?" appearing directly before "Revolution 9". This portion of the song does not appear in the lyrics included with the album. Immediately following, a short and barely audible conversation takes place between producer George Martin and Alistair Taylor, Brian Epstein's personal assistant. Taylor is apologising to Martin, apparently for neglecting to bring a bottle of wine for him to the session. While this was included as part of the track for "Cry Baby Cry" on some CD releases, it is considered the beginning of "Revolution 9." Also at the end of Come Together on the Love soundtrack the song segues into "Can You Take Me Back". The whole version of the song is featured on several bootlegs. Lyrics: 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 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

Cry Baby Cry (The Beatles Cover)
This was a special request by the talented Mr. Zzzzzzzzap, who's also been way too kind with his words. But i am really grateful to receive such lovely compliments, especially from a musician as talented as he is. I'm sure you've all heard of him because he's probably the one who directed you here, and he needs no introduction, as my words are probably not worthy to describe the wonderful melodies he plays. But here's the link in case you've been living in a cave. (joke) http://www.youtube.com/zzzzzzzzap So, here is my cover of a great Beatles' song as requested by Zzzzzzzzap, as he has already responded to the song that i've requested from him. He did it a great deal of justice! Go check it out incase you haven't already. There are a couple of minor slip ups, the wonders of live recording eh?

The Beatles- Cry Baby Cry
Facts about The Beatles "Cry Baby Cry" from "the White Album", 1968: The lyrics were inspired by fairy tales John Lennon heard in his childhood. The chorus and the verses do not have much in common and it is safe to assume there is no point to the song other than to exhibit its beautiful melody, a practice the Beatles did with many songs. John Lennon said he got the title for the song from an advertisement. The original line from that advertisement was, "Cry, baby cry. Make your mother buy." The song features a brief segment at the end, written by Paul McCartney often referred to as "Can You Take Me Back". Immediately following "Can You Take Me Back", a short and barely audible conversation takes place between producer George Martin and Alistair Taylor, Brian Epsteins personal assistant. Here is what's said: Alistair Taylor: "bottle of claret for you if I'd realized. I'd forgotten all about it George, I'm sorry..." George Martin: "Well, do next time" Alistair: "Will you forgive me"? George: "Mmmm...yes..." Alistair: "cheeky bitch." Some who listen to it on vinyl say that "Can you take me back" is supposed to be the intro for "Revolution 9".
