Do-Re-Mi Lyrics


MARIA:
Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with

CHILD:
ABC

MARIA:
When you sing you begin with
Do Re Mi

CHILDREN:
Do Re Mi

MARIA:
Do Re Mi
The first three notes just happen to be
Do Re Mi

CHILDREN:
Do Re Mi

MARIA:
Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti
Let's see if I can make it easier
Do - a deer a female deer
Re - a drop of golden sun
Mi - a name I call myself
Fa - a long long way to run
Sol- a needle pulling thread
La - a note to follow so
Ti - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do
Oh Oh Oh

MARIA AND CHILDREN:
Do - a deer a female deer
Re - a drop of golden sun
Mi - a name I call myself
Fa - a long long way to run
Sol- a needle pulling thread
La - a note to follow so
Ti - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do

CHILDREN:
A deer a female deer
Re - a drop of golden sun
Mi - a name I call myself
Fa - a long long way to run

MARIA AND CHILDREN:
Sol- a needle pulling thread
La - a note to follow so
Ti - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do

MARIA:
Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti Do Sol Do!
Now children, Do Re Mi Fa Sol and so on are natur'ly the tunes we use
to build a song once you have these notes in your head you can sing
a million diff'rent tune by mixin' them up, like this:
Sol Do La Fa Mi Do Re
Can you do that?

CHILDREN:
Sol Do La Fa Mi Do Re

MARIA:
Sol Do La Ti Do Re Do

CHILDREN:
Sol Do La Ti Do Re Do

MARIA AND CHILDREN:
Now let's put it all together
Sol Do La Fa Mi Do Re
Sol Do La Ti Do Re Do

MARIA:
Good!

CHILD:
But it doesn't mean anything...

MARIA:
So we put in words,
One word for ev'ry note, like this:
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything.
Together!

MARIA AND CHILDREN:
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Do - a deer a female deer
Re - a drop of golden sun
Mi - a name I call myself
Fa - a long long way to run
Sol- a needle pulling thread
La - a note to follow so
Ti - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do
Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti
Do Do Ti La Sol Fa Mi Re
Do Mi Mi Mi Sol Sol
Re Fa Fa La Ti Ti
Do Mi Mi Mi Sol Sol
Re Fa Fa La Ti Ti
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
Do - a deer a female deer
Re - a drop of golden sun
Mi - a name I call myself
Fa - a long long way to run
Sol- a needle pulling thread
La - a note to follow so
Ti - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to
Sol Do La Fa Mi Do Re
Sol Do La Fa La Sol Fa Ti Re Ti Do
