You mean that they are cited in the text, but that there's no Reference
section at the end of the document with the cited entries? That's not
easy.
You can do it with a bit of hacking and a script though.
First, gather together all your citations:
$ sed -n -f citation_keys.sed yourfile.lyx | sort -u | \
sed -f citation_1liner.sed citation_keys.txt
I attach both sed files.
Then, use this dataset to create yet another sed script and use that to
modify the attached script, bib2bbl.sh.in
$ sed s/CITATION_DATA/`cat citation_keys.txt`/ bib2latex.sh.in \
bib2latex.sh
Finally, run this shell script to generate a latex file of your references.
Something like:
$ sh bib2latex.sh docs/references.bib citations.tex plainnat article
where docs/references.bib is my BibTeX database and the output is to go in
citations.tex
You should even be able to import this document into LyX and output as
ASCII ;-)
Hope it works but caveat emptor.

You could run a dvi to ASCII converter (like dvi2tty) after exporting to dvi. See man dvi2tty for usage. The output quality is said to be low, though.
