My friends Neil and Mary just sent out an e-mail asking if anyone might remember this. They had a customer in their shop in Berea asking if they knew and old round about a washing machine but the only words he could remember were "wishy washy" and "green beans.

It didn't strike any bells with me, but I thought I'd throw it out here. Anybody got anything on this?

The wishy washy line seems to "ring the bells" in the fringes of my mind, but it seems to be in a different context. I will be seeing the friends who do the song which I am thinking of in a few weeks. I will try to remember to ask them.

I appreciate that Dale and I'll just toss it back in the pond every now and then and see if I get a bite from anyone else.

learned at summer camp:
Way down in the jungle where nobody goes
Is a wishy-washy washerwoman washing her clothes
She goes "Ooh, ah, ooh, ah"
That's how the washerwoman washes her clothes.

probably not the song requested, but the only thing I could think of.

Spaw,
Did you ever find out if the above round is a related to the one your friend wanted? It doesn't mention green beans but it could be a variant.

Anyone,
A melody to go with "wishy-washy" above would be great, too!
