Listen: [SUNG] 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 So Tea, a drink with jam and bread That will lead us back to Do, oh, oh, oh [WITH CHILDREN] 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 So Tea, a drink with jam and bread That will lead us back to Do Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do-- So-- Do [SPOKEN] Now, children, once you have these notes in your head, you can sing a million tunes by mixing them up--like this: [SUNG] So, Do, La, Fa, Mi, Do, Re...
