Lyrics to Do-re-mi
Do-re-mi Video:
Let's start at the very beginning

A very good place to start

When you read you begin with A-B-C

When you sing you begin with do-re-mi

Do-re-mi, do-re-mi

The first three notes just happen to be

Do-re-mi, do-re-mi



Maria:

Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti

spoken Let's see if I can make it easy



Doe, a deer, a female deer

Ray, a drop of golden sun

Me, a name I call myself

Far, a long, long way to run

Sew, a needle pulling thread

La, a note to follow Sew

Tea, a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to Do (oh-oh-oh)



Maria and Children:

(Repeat above verse twice)



Maria:

Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do

So-do!



Maria:

spoken Now children, do-re-mi-fa-so and so on are only the tools we use to build a song. Once you have these notes in your heads, you can sing a million different tunes by mixing them up. Like this.



So Do La Fa Mi Do Re

spoken Can you do that?

Children:

So Do La Fa Mi Do Re

Maria:

So Do La Ti Do Re Do

Children:

So Do La Ti Do Re Do

Maria:

spoken Now, put it all together.



Maria and Children:

So Do La Fa Mi Do Re, So Do La Ti Do Re Do

Maria:

spoken Good!

Brigitta:

spoken But it doesn't mean anything.

Maria:

spoken So we put in words. One word for every note. Like this.



When you know the notes to sing

You can sing most anything

spoken Together!



Maria and Children:

When you know the notes to sing

You can sing most anything



Doe, a deer, a female deer

Ray, a drop of golden sun

Me, a name I call myself

Far, a long, long way to run

Sew, a needle pulling thread

La, a note to follow Sew

Tea, a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to Do



Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do

Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re



Children:

Do Mi Mi

Mi So So

Re Fa Fa

La Ti Ti

(Repeat above verse 4x as Maria sings)



Maria:

When you know the notes to sing

You can sing most anything



Maria and Children:

Doe, a deer, a female deer

Ray, a drop of golden sun

Me, a name I call myself

Far, a long, long way to run

Sew, a needle pulling thread

La, a note to follow Sew

Tea, a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to



Maria:

Children:
