“Do Re Mi” was written by Woody Guthrie and released in 1940. As noted in the Wikipedia article, the phenomena of people moving to California from the Dust Bowl during the Depression was also addressed in John Steinbeck’s novel The Grapes of Wrath (which I highly recommend as well as the John Ford film from it).
