_I don't know why, but a friend asked me to write a song on Do Re Mi. I said it's been done, but Dough, Ray and me hasn't. Money's important, but friends are more important._

Lyrics:

I remember when we were young and free /
Runnin' just to run now, Ray and me /
Doin' anything lord that we could do for free /
Never had no dough, Ray and me

In our teens, our hair was long and shaggy /
Runnin' in the streets now, Ray and me /
Doin' anything lord to prove that we were free /
Never cared about dough, Ray and me

The spring of life can turn a young man's fancy /
Runnin' after love now, Ray and me /
Changed our style, lord /
To fit a family /
Went chasin' after dough, Ray and me

_Bridge_
It was a just a matter of time /
'Til Ray went his way and I went mine /
Cause he had a Midas touch /
And I never made more than just enough /
It wasn't strange we went separate ways /
But Ray called me up one day /
He said, "Do you know how long it's been, /
I miss you my old friend"

Now we ain't young as we used to be /
But we're runnin' just to run now, Ray and me /
And doin' anything lord that keeps us feelin' free /
We don't need need dough, Ray and me /
No we don't need dough, Ray and me
