Lot of folks back east say leave home most every day Hitting the hard old dusty trail to the California line Well across the desert sands they rode Getting out out of the old dust bowl Think they're going to a sugar bowl here's what they find For the police at the port of entry say Your number 14,000 for the day Well if you ain't got the do re me boys You ain't got the do re me Well you better go back to beautiful Texas Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee California's a garden of eden It's paradise to live and see But believe it or not you won't find it so hot If you ain't got the do re me Now if you want to buy a home or farm That can't do nobody harm Take your vacation by the mountains or the sea But you better not swap your cow for car Better stay right where you are Better take this little tip from me Cause I look thru the want ads every day And the headlines on the paper always say Well if you ain't got the do re me boys You ain't got the do re me Well you better go back to beautiful Texas Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee California's a garden of eden It's paradise for you and for me But believe it or not you won't find it so hot If you ain't got the do re me From Tom Rush "Tom Rush" Elektra Records 1965
