Here's how I set my lyrics font:

myLyrics = \lyricmode {
    \override LyricText.font-family = #'typewriter
    \override LyricText.font-size = #'2

    Do, a deer, a female deer.
    Re, a drop of golden sun.
}

\paper {
  #(define fonts
    (make-pango-font-tree "Hardwood"
                          "Highlander ITC TT"
                          "LilyJAZZText"
                           (/ myStaffSize 20)))
}

The third font listed in the make-pango-font-tree is the one assigned to
the typewriter style.  Which in this example is LilyJAZZText.  The first
one is the general font, and the second one is used for chords.
