Do-Re-Mi (1965 Original Soundtrack Version)

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

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

Oh, 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

So, 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

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

So, a needle pulling thread

La

A note to follow so

Ti

A drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to 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

So, 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-so-la-ti-do, so-do

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

Can you do that?

So, do, la, fa, mi, do, re

So, do, la, ti, do, re, do

So, do, la, ti, do, re, do

Now put it all together

So, do, la, fa, mi, do, re

So, do, la, ti, do, re, do

Good

But it doesn't mean anything

So we put in words, one word for every note, like this

When you know the notes to sing

You can sing most anything

Together

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

So, 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, so, la, ti, do

Do, ti, la, so, fa, mi, re

Do, mi, mi

Mi, so, so

Re, fa, fa

La, ti, ti

Do, mi-mi

Mi, so-so

Re, fa-fa

La, ti-ti

When (Do, mi-mi)

You (Mi, so-so)

Know (Re, fa-fa)

The (La, ti-ti)

Notes (Do, mi-mi)

To (Mi, so-so)

Sing (Re, fa-fa)

(La, ti-ti)

You (La, ti-ti)

Can (Mi, so-so)

Sing (Re, fa-fa)

Most (La, ti-ti)

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

So, a needle pulling thread

La, a note to follow so

Ti, a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to

Do (So, do)

Re (La, fa)

Mi (Mi, do)

Fa (Re)

So (So, do)

La (La, fa)

Ti (La-so, fa, mi-re)

Ti, do (So, do)
