Maria:

Let's start at the very beginning!
very good place to start,
When you read you begin with

Children:

A, B, C,

Maria:

When you sing you begin with
Do – Re – Mi.

Children:

Do – Re - Mi?

Maria:

Do – Re – Mi.
The first three notes just happen to be
Do – Re - Mi!

Children:

Do – Re – Mi!

Maria:

Do – Re – Mi – Fa – Sol – La – Ti.

                         (Let's see if I can make it easier.)

Doe - a deer, a female deer,
Ray - a drop of golden sun,
Me - a name I call myself,
Far - a long, long way [bad word] 
Sew - a needle pulling thread,
La - a note to follow sew,
Tea - a drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Do -
Oh – Oh - Oh!

Maria and Children:

Do - a deer, a female deer,
Re - a drop of golden sun,
Mi - a name I call myself,
Fa - a long, long way [bad word] 
So! needle pulling thread.
La! note to follow so!
Ti! drink with jam and bread
That will bring us back to Doe -
