Ani Difranco - Do Re Me Lyrics
Folks back east they say,I'm leaving home everydayBeating the hot old dusty way outTo the California LineAcross the desert sands they roleTrying to get out of that old dust holeThey think they're going to sugar bowl,This is what they findPolice at the port of entry sayYour number fourteen thousand for todayAnd if you ain't the do re mi boyIf you aint got the do re miYou better go back to beautiful Texas,Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, TennesseeMaybe you want a house or a farmNot do no body no harmJust take your vacations by the mountains or the seaWell don't sell that old cow for a car,You might just want to stay right where you areTake a little advice from meCuz I read the warnings everydayAnd the headlines in the papers always sayIf you aint got the do re mi boyIf you aint got the do re miYou better go back to beautiful Texas, Oklahoma,Kansas, Georgia, TennesseeCalifornia is a garden of evilA paradise to live in or to seeBut believe or not, you wont find it so hotIf you aint got the do re mi
