109 Do Re Mi |
Lots of folks back East they say, leaving home every day |
Beating the hot old dusty way to the California line |
Cross the desert sands they roll, getting out of the old dust bowl |
Think they’re going to a sugar bowl, but here’s what they find |
Now police at the port of entry say, |
«you're number fourteen thousand for today |
Oh, if you ain’t got the do re mi, folks, you ain’t got the do re mi |
Why you better get back to beautiful Texas, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee |
California is a garden of Eden, a paradise to live in or see |
But believe it or not, you won’t find it so hot |
If you ain’t got the do re mi |
You want to buy a house or a farm, that can’t do nobody harm |
Or take your vacation by the mountain or sea |
Don’t swap your old cow for a car, you’d better stay right where you are |
Better take this little tip from me: |
Cause I look through the want ads every day |
And the headlines in the papers always say |
