Do-Re-Mi
Maria:
Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start,
When you read you begin with
Gretel(spoken):
A, B, C,
Maria:
When you sing you begin with
Do-Re-Mi.
Children:
Do-Re-Mi?
Maria:
Do-Re-Mi.
The first three notes just happen to be
Do-Re-Mi!
Children:
Do-Re-Mi!
Maria:
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti...
Maria(spoken):
All right, I'll make it easier. Listen:

Maria:
Doe
A deer
A female deer.
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!

Gretel(spoken):
Do!
Maria:
A deer,
A female deer.
Children(spoken):
Re!
Maria:
A drop of golden sun.
Children(spoken):
Mi!
Maria:
A name I call myself.
Children(spoken):
Fa!
Maria:
A long, long way to run.
So
Children:
A needle pulling thread.
Maria:
La
Children:
A note to follow so!
Maria:
Ti!
Children:
A drink with jam and bread
Maria:
That will bring us back to
ALL:
Do
A deer
A female deer.
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!

Maria:
(going down the scale)
Do
Ti
La
So
Fa
Mi
Re
(almost so low she cannot sing it)
Do.
