Do Re Mi

Lyrics

Lots of folks back East, they say, is leavin' home every day Beatin' the hot old dusty way to the California line 'Cross the desert sands they roll, gettin' out of that old dust bowl They think they're goin' to a sugar bowl, but here's what they find For, the police at the port of entry say "You're number fourteen thousand for today." Hey, if you ain't got the do re mi, boys, you ain't got the do re mi You better go back to beautiful Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee California is a Garden of Eden, it's a paradise to live in or see; But bеlieve me or not, you won't find it so hot If you ain't got thе do re mi Now if you want to buy you a home or a farm, that can't deal nobody harm Or take your vacation by the mountains or sea Don't swap your old cow for a car, you better stay right where you are Better take this little tip from me 'Cause I look through the want ads every day But the only thing the papers always say: Hey, if you ain't got the do re mi, boys, you ain't got the do re mi You better go back to beautiful Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee California is a Garden of Eden, it's a paradise to live in or see; But believe me or not, you won't find it so hot If you ain't got the do re mi boys If you ain't got the do re mi
