Woody Guthrie - Do Re Mi Lyrics
DO RE MI by Woody GuthrieLots of folks back East they say, leaving home every dayBeating the hot old dusty way to the California lineCross the desert sands they roll, getting out of the old dust bowlThink they're going to a sugar bowl, but here's what they findNow 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 miYou want to buy a house or a farm, that can't do nobody harmOr take your vacation by the mountain or seaDon't swap your old cow for a car, you'd better stay right where you areBetter take this little tip from me:Cause I look through the want ads every dayAnd the headlines in the papers always sayfilename[ DOREMI===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY
