X: 1 T:Beans Again M:6/8 L:1/8 C:by Vivian T. Williams R:jig O:U.S. A:Puget Sound, Washington N:Vivian and Phil Williams used to go sailing, catching their N:dinner as they went. If they failed to catch anything , it N:was "Beans Again". N:Let's go fishing for dinner tonight, so get out a pole or two, Ling or salmon or cabezon, or any N: old rockfish will do. N:Buy your hooks and your fancy lures, that fill the merchants with glee, leave them hooked on a N:reef upon the bottom of the sea. N:If we don't catch a fish we'll eat beans again, beans again, beans again, If we don't catch a N: fish we'll eat beans again for the seventeenth day in a row. N:There's Boston baked and there's black eyed peas, lentils and limas and garbanzo. N:There's canned and there's dried and there's Mexican fried, I've tried all the ways that I know H:Medley, Yakima Contra Dance ~~ 2018 was H:The Flight (C)/Beans Again (Am/C)/ H:Peter Barnes (A) H:abcs done by Phil Katz Z:abc's PLK 1/2023, from Vivian's pdf K:Am AB|"Am"cdc "E7"BcB |"Am"A2 B cBA |"G"G2 A BAG |"F7"F3- F3 |!
