Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Unhappy Owl
OK, got the song and melody posted. I did not find an original source for the song listed in the attributions, but it may that I missed it when I read through the list. So, can anybody identify the original Mexican song? Apparently, this song only appeared in the 1956 Silver Burdett songbook series, and not in any of the later series. We have most or all of the later series indexed, and it did not come up when I searched.
