Do Re Mi (1976 Album Version) Lyrics

Lots of folks back East, they say
Are leavin' town 'most every day
And they're tryin' to beat the dusty way
To the California line

Well, across desert sands they roll
Tryin' to get out that old Dust Bowl
And they think they're headin' for a rock sugar bowl
But here's what they find

Now the police at the border always say
"You're number fourteen thousand for today," yeah
If you ain't got the do re mi, boy
You ain't got the do re mi
Better go back home to beautiful Texas
Oklahoma, Georgia, Kansas, Tennessee
California is a Gardеn of Eden
Paradise to live in or see
But bеlieve it or not
You won't find it so hot
If you ain't got the do re mi

Well, you can buy yourself a house or farm
That can't do nobody harm, or
Take your vacation by the mountains or the sea
Well, don't swap that old cow for a car
You better just stay right where you are
You better take this little tip from me

'Cause I read the want ads every day
And the headlines in the papers always say, hey
If you won't mean got the do re mi, boy
You ain't got the do re mi
You better go back home to beautiful Texas
Oklahoma, Georgia, Kansas, Tennessee
(South Florida)
California is the Garden of Eden
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
