D G
Lot of folks back east say leave home most every day
A D
Hitting the hard old dusty trail to the California line
Well across the desert sands they rode
G
Getting out out of the old dust bowl
A D
Think they're going to a sugar bowl here's what they find
A
For the police at the port of entry say
A7
Your number 14,000 for the day
D
Well if you ain't got the do re me boys
A
You ain't got the do re me
Well you better go back to beautiful Texas
D
Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee
California's a garden of eden
D7 G
It's paradise to live and see
D
But believe it or not you won't find it so hot
A D G A D
If you ain't got the do re me
D
Now if you want to buy a home or farm
G
That can't do nobody harm
A D
Take your vacation by the mountains or the sea
But you better not swap your cow for car
G
Better stay right where you are
A D
Better take this little tip from me
A
Cause I look thru the want ads every day
And the headlines on the paper always say
D
Well if you ain't got the do re me boys
A
You ain't got the do re me
Well you better go back to beautiful Texas
D
Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee
D
California's a garden of eden
D7 G
It's paradise for you and for me
D
But believe it or not you won't find it so hot
A D G A D
If you ain't got the do re me
