Do Re Mi

This song is one of my favourites. Singing it certainly brings me back to my childhood days. Enjoy!


Do Re Mi

Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start

When you read you begin with
ABC

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
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 Sol Do

Now children
Do Re Mi Fa So and so on
are naturally the tunes we use to build a song
once you have these notes in your head
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 let's 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 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
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
So Do La Fa La So Fa Ti Re Ti Do
So Do
