The Sound Of Music - Do-Re-Mi lyrics

[Intro: Maria (Children)] 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 Let's see if I can make it easier... [Verse 1: Maria (Children)] 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) (Sol- 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 Sol La Ti Do Sol Do! [Break] Now children, Do Re Mi Fa Sol and so on are natur'ly the tunes we use To build a song once you have these notes in your head you can sing A million diff'rent tune by mixin' them up, like this: Sol Do La Fa Mi Do Re Can you do that?
