The LaTeX syntax for a double quote is ''quoted text``, at least to typeset the quotes according to English typesetting standards. So, one solution for you is to simply write ''the quot- ed text``
In order to convince LilyPond to pass a double quote in lyrics into the generated LaTeX file, you have to say "\"text\"".

A phrase in a lyric is quoted. Lilypond interprets "text" to have two ending (smart) quotes rather than
a) a beginning quote, text, an ending quote (which is preferred) or,
b) plain straight quotes.
I tried using backslashes \"text\" but got the same results.
I didn't find an answer in the archives- I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
Thanks-
