I would rather recommend to read in the Learning Manual for the latest
development version of LilyPond. Almost all the information you can find
there is applicable also to version 2.10 and the text has been
significantly revised and improved. In particular, take a look at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond-learning/Songs#Songs
The Lyrics should be associated with a "Voice":
\new Staff {
\new Voice = "melodyVoice" {\melody}
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melodyVoice" \text
In this particular example, using \addlyrics is an even simpler option
(see "Setting simple songs" in the Learning Manual), but otherwise I
agree that it's a good idea to learn about \lyricsto as soon as possible
since you will need it sooner or later anyway.
