Текст песни Do Re Mi (Woody Guthrie) с переводом

Lots of folks back East they say, leaving home every day

Beating the hot old dusty way to the California line

Cross the desert sands they roll, getting out of the old dust bowl

Think they’re going to a sugar bowl, but here’s what they find

Now police at the port of entry say,

«you're number fourteen thousand for today

Oh, if you ain’t got the do re mi, folks, you ain’t got the do re mi

Why you better get back to beautiful Texas, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee

California is a garden of Eden, a paradise to live in or see

But believe it or not, you won’t find it so hot

If you ain’t got the do re mi

You want to buy a house or a farm, that can’t do nobody harm

Or take your vacation by the mountain or sea

Don’t swap your old cow for a car, you’d better stay right where you are

Better take this little tip from me:

Cause I look through the want ads every day

And the headlines in the papers always say
