Store the lyrics first, then extract the text from the LyricEvent objects:
\version "2.13.46"
words = \lyricmode { This is my ex -- am -- ple text }
text =
#(map (lambda (x) (ly:music-property x 'text))
(extract-named-music words 'LyricEvent))
melody = \relative c' { c4 d e f | g a c2 }
\new Voice { \melody }
\addlyrics { \words }
#(markup* (make-line-markup text))
For simplicity I've ignored hyphens, but it shouldn't be too difficult
to add them (or use their position in the list of strings to restore
the hyphenated words).
Cheers,
Neil
