Lyrics issue

as several noted years ago, lyrics do not appear on some of my downloaded songs on my iPad. There is no button in the playing song options and force touch in Library does not produce lyrics. Frustrating to have the feature be unpredictable. Any new fixes?

iPad Mini Wi-Fi, iOS 11.3.1, 12.4 GB memory remaining

Hello Barbara

When you go to a song you have 3 dots on the bottom right
Click on the 3 dots and you will get the option of "Lyrics" if the song has lyrics.
If it doesn't but you want to put lyrics then; head over to iTunes and Select your song;
Right Click and Select "Song Info" Choose the Tab Lyrics and Paste your lyrics there.
Connect your iOS device to iTunes and re-sync with it.

Thank you. My problem begins at #3 on your list. I guess I’ll have to fire up the PC to resolve. (What a pain. Would think Apple could provide better service. )
