Do-Re-Mi!  Do-Re-Mi!
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti,  (no lyrics)
 
Chorus:
Doe, a dear, a female dear,
Ray, a drop of golden sun,
Me, a name I call myself,
Far, a long, long way to run.
Sew, a needle pulling thread,
La, a note to follow sew,
Tea, a drink with jam and bread,
That will bring us back to do. (oh-oh-oh!)

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