There is no LYRICS tag in MP3 files for me. Is this Windows dependent? What version are you using?

Yes this procedure does not work for me either.

The real problem is that Android does not natively read the ID3 lyrics tag. So, I put in a new feature request that would give Android the ability to read ULT and USLT ( lyrics ) ID3 tags. This will allow the native and 3rd party music players to display lyrics, like the iOS and Windows Phone players currently can.
If you want this feature in Android, please star the request below:

I recommend using Miui music player or Minilyrics rather than the stock music player.
both free and on the net.

LyricsDog on google play adds lyrics to mp3 files, it's the easiest way.

.

Is there any way to add lyrics with orginal music player, not with PC?
For example you download a music and wana add it's lyric simultanously.

Try TuneWiki

TuneWiki can fetch lyrics and artwork online. It also has a basic tag editor. It has a pretty good database and a user community. You can edit the lyrics, change color, font, artwork,etc. It also has Song ID, like Shazaam.
But, the lyrics seem to be in a proprietary format and doesn't save to id3 lyrics tag. musiXmatch also seems good, but i couldn't test it as Google Play says it's incompatible wid my device.
It would have been better if there's an app that fetches metadata/tag info( including lyrics if possible) automatically from internet and save to music files. Do anybody know of such an app for Android?

Ugh musixmatch is a different app and it doesnt put lyrics on your mp3s..

musiXmatch & MiniLyrics

It doesn't embed lyrics inside music files but it does show lyrics. It is similar to TuneWiki. These lyrics are synchronised too. But, the problem is that they don't save/embed lyrics with the music. It would have been better if they saved the lyrics in some format embedded or even as an external LRC for later use.
Minilyrics also seems to be good (For lyrics alone!). It claims to play both USLT( unsynchronised) and SYLT (synchronised) fields in ID3v2 tag and LRC. I don't know if the Android app can write tags( desktop one does). It's just a minimal player(even minimal than the stock player, i think) and doesn't have all the bells and whistles like the ones i mentioned above. If lyrics is your only thing go for it. But, i(and most others) want something which finds all the Album Art, metadata, and other Tag info. Anyway, the minilyrics app doesn't currently work in my device, says failed to read internet data.

But, that's just me,i guess.

musiXmatch works as standalone app or just for Lyrics!

I'm using poweramp AND musiXmatch.
When I hear a Song musiXmatch shows me in Statusbar if there is a lyricsfile for it and when I tap on it it opens.

Poweramp plays in background and in opened musiXmatch I have the lyrics

For me MusiXmatch works very good, and if I didn't payed for PowerAmp I would just use musiXmatch like years before on PC!

Fix cover art in Musixmatch

I also have Poweramp and am using Musixmatch with it. When I open the Musixmatch app it has some how loaded pictures from my photo album as cover art and I didn't feel like paying Musixmatch to fix their problem so what I ended up doing is downloaded Cover Art Downloader from the playstore and it automatically found the right cover art and replaced the photos.
