Lyrics
(Melody by Adolf Weidig, Lyrics by May Morgan)
Part I
I dreamt when I was practicing my exercises o’er
A little mouse came creeping out and dancing on the floor,
I thought his taste was very strange, I’d never caper so,
For such a tune as: Do re mi fa so fa mi re do!
Part II
Do re mi fa so fa mi re,
Do re mi fa so fa mi re do,
Do re mi fa so– fa mi re,
Do re mi fa so fa mi re do.
