Cisco Houston - Do Re Mi lyrics

Well thousands of folks back east, they say Are leaving home most every day; And they're beating the hot, old, dusty way to the California line Across the desert sands they roll A-getting' out of that old Dust Bowl And they think they're going to a sugar bowl And here is what they find The police at the port of entry say "You're number fourteen thousand for today." Chorus If you ain't got the do-re-mi, boys If you ain't got the do-re-mi Well, you'd better go back to beatiful Texas Oklahoma, Georgia, Kansas, Tennessee California is a 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 Well, if you want to buy you a home or farm That deal nobody harm; Or take your vacations by the mountains or the sea Don't swap your old cow for a car You'd better stay right where you are Well, you'd better take this little tip from me Because I look through the want ads every day And the headlines on the paper always say: (Chorus)
