Yahoo or google or any other search engine do that

Google works best for this.
Use lyrics "insert lyric snippit here" then watch the results. The more unique the lyric phrase the better chance you have. You can take the lyrics out of the search if nothing comes up, but be sure you got the phrase right. The quote marks search for exactly that phrase in the quotes.
If you get too many hits and they are from dozens of bands it means you need to find a more unique part of the lyrics if you can. Often the lyric sites will have links to where you can buy the CD the song is from. If in doubt follow some of those and play a preview of that song or if that song doesn't have a real media preview just play some of the songs that do. Usually the vocalist will have a similer style on all songs and you can recognize if that's the right version. Some tunes have been covered by dozens of bands. "Your no good/she/he's no good" for example. I believe it was origionally done by a Motown artist. My favorite version is Van Halen's. The lyrics are not extremely origional and with so many bands doing covers of that song it might take a bit to find the version you wanted.
A way around that is if you have a local radio station which has that song in it's playlist, you can then from the playlist figure out which of dozens of tunes is the one. Some songs can be hard to track. Took me almost an hour to figure out that Point Blank did the tune Great White Line. Problem is there are two Point Blanks. One a late 70s early 80s Rock band, the other a Rapp group. Most songs are easy to find inside 5 minutes this way. Amazon, Barnes and Noble also offer lyric searchs as well. Hit Amazon from teh www.cdnow.com URL. It'll give you the lyric search engine in the search bar.

In a search engine, type in a fragment of lyrics you know, then put a seperator and type "lyrics".
Like this: you were the one>lyrics
something like that. So it would look up for websites for lyrics.

There are many!!!! Just google "lyrics" and you'll find dozens of sites. If you're looking for lyrics to a specific song, google the song title and "lyrics"

not a website, but you can usually just type the lyrics into your browser and you'll get a few results. Just browse through them and you can find your song in no time.

I do that in google all the time. I just use the word 'lyrics' in front of my search.

often typing partly or all of what you could submit to in techniques from a music on Goggle works. it relatively is often worked for me, besides. If no longer, you could ask this on an entire different question, "What music is this?" and supply the type of the music and splendor (punk, pop, and so on.) good success!
