Do Re Mi Lyrics |
Nanci Griffith |
|
|
Well, thousands of folks back east they say |
Are leavin' most everyday |
They're beatin' the hot ole dusty way |
To the California line |
Across the desert sands they roll |
A-gettin' outta that old dust bowl |
They think they're goin' to a sugar bowl |
But, here is what they find |
The police at the port of entry say |
You're number 14,000 for the day |
|
If you ain't got that Do Re Mi.. boys |
If you ain't got that Do Re Mi |
Oh, you better go back to beautiful Texas |
Oklahoma, Georgia, Kansas, Tennessee |
California is a garden of Eden |
It's 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 |
Solo(Guitar) |
|
Well, if wanna buy you a home or a farm |
That can't deal nobody harm |
Or take your vacations by the mountains or the sea |
Don't swap your old cow for a car |
You'd better stay right where you are |
You better take this little tip from me |
I look through the want ads every day |
And the headlines in the papers always say |
|
If you ain't got that Do Re Mi.. boys |
If you ain't got that Do Re Mi |
Oh, you better go back to beautiful Texas |
Oklahoma, Georgia, Kansas, Tennessee |
California is a garden of Eden |
It's a paradise to live in or see |
Believe it or not you won't find it so hot |
If you ain't got the Do Re Mi |
|
They're believe it or not you won't find it so hot |
If you ain't got the Do Re Mi |
