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
Maria:
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti
Let's see if I can make it easy
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)
Maria and Children:
(Repeat above verse twice)
Maria:
Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do
So-do!
Maria:
spoken Now children,
do-re-mi-fa-so and so on are only the tools we use to build a song.
Once you have these notes in your heads,
you can sing a million different tunes
by mixing them up. Like this.
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
spoken Can you do that?
Children:
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re
Maria:
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
Children:
So Do La Ti Do Re Do
Maria:
spoken Now, put it all together.
Maria and Children:
So Do La Fa Mi Do Re, So Do La Ti Do Re Do
Maria:
spoken Good!
Brigitta:
spoken But it doesn't mean anything.
Maria:
spoken So we put in words. One word for every note. Like this.
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
spoken Together!
Maria and Children:
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
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

La, a note to follow Sew
Tea, a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re
Children:
Do Mi Mi
Mi So So
Re Fa Fa
La Ti Ti
(Repeat above verse 4x as Maria sings)
