Subject: RE: Origin: 'Beans in our ears' tune?
I don't hear it myself Jack.
Here's Snuffy's transcription of Beans In Our Ears from Lyr Req: Beans in my Ears (Len Chandler). (Though this isn't how I'd remembered the tune anyway; I always thought it was like "I danced with a girl with a hole in her stocking..."; is that the Buffalo Gals tune?). Tune attributed to Len Chandler, btw.
