I use the template

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/piano-centered-lyrics

trying to engrave “Ten little Indian boys". The lyrics does't go to the
right place.
It looks like the lyrics can only match upper notes.

Did I miss some manual?

\version "2.18.2"

upper = \relative c'' {
  \clef treble
  \key c \major
  \time 4/4

  e4 g8 g e4 c |
  r1 |
}

lower = \relative c {
  \clef bass
  \key c \major
  \time 4/4

  r1 |
  d'4 d8 d d4 d8 d |
}

text = \lyricmode {
  Three lit- tle In- dians, |
  Four lit- tle, Five lit- tle,|  *% How to show this?*
}

\score {
  \new GrandStaff <<
    \new Staff = upper { \new Voice = "singer" \upper }
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "singer" \text
    \new Staff = lower { \lower }
  >>
  \layout {
    \context {
      \GrandStaff
      \accepts "Lyrics"
    }
    \context {
      \Lyrics
      \consists "Bar_engraver"
    }
  }
  \midi { }
}
