I have a case where I want to print lyrics that have some parts on separate lines. But want all the lyrics above the bass staff line.  This is for the bass player to follow - no other staffs needed. The following sample is based on lilypond documentation but I'm not quite getting there because the bass line is coming between lyric lines instead after all the lyrics.

sample code:

\version "2.26.0"

\score {
  <<
    \new Lyrics \lyricmode  {
      Not re -- peat -- ed.
      <<
        { The first time words.    }
    \new Lyrics \lyricmode {
      Sec -- ond time words.
    }
    \new Lyrics \lyricmode {
      The third time words.
    }
      >>
      The end sec -- tion.
    }
    \new Staff {
      \new Voice  {
        \relative {
          \clef bass
      a,4 a a a
      \repeat volta 3 { b4 b b b }
          c4 c c c
    }
      }
    }
  >>
}
