Do-Re-Mi (Extrait De La Comédie Musicale « La Mélodie Du Bonheur »)

Let’s start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read, you begin with--
A, be, see!
When you sing, you begin with Do, Re, Mi
Do, Re, Mi
Do, Re, Mi
The first three notes just happen to be
Do, Re, Mi
Do, Re, Mi
Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti
Come, I’ll make it easy for you.
Listen:
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name, I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow So
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will lead us back to Do, oh, oh, oh
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name, I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow So
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will lead us back to Do
Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do-- So-- Do
Now, children, once you have these notes in your head, you can sing a
million tunes by mixing them up--like this:
So, Do, La, Fa, Mi, Do, Re… Now you do it.
So, Do, La, Fa, Mi, Do, Re
So, Do, La, Ti, Do, Re, Do
So, Do, La, Ti, Do, Re, Do
Now let’s put it all together:
So, Do, La, Fa, Mi, Do, Re
So, Do, La, Ti, Do, Re, Do
But it doesn’t mean anything!
So we put in words--one word for every note:
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most an--why--thing.
Together!
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most an--why--thing
Doe, a deer, a female deer
Ray, a drop of golden sun
Me, a name, I call myself
Far, a long, long way to run
Sew, a needle pulling thread
La, a note to follow So
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will lead us back to Do
Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do-- So-- Do
