Artist/Band: Bobby Troup
Lyrics for Song: Do-Re-Mi
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Bobby Troup



Lots of folks back east they say

Leaving home most every day

Beating the hot old dusty way

To the California line

'Cross the desert sands they roll

Getting out of that Old Dust Bowl

Think they're coming to a sugar bowl

But here's what they find

Police at the port of entry say

You're number fourteen thousand for to day



Hey, if you ain't got the Do Re Mi, boy

If you ain't got the Do Re Mi

Well, you better go back to beautiful Texas

Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee

California is the 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



You want to buy a home or a farm

That can't do nobody harm

Take your vacation by the mountains or sea

Don't swap your old cow for a car

You better stay right where you are

Better take this little tip from me

Well, I look through the want ads every day

The headlines in the papers always say
