The eponymous song of the film is set to the same tune as "We Won't Be Home Until Morning", "The Bear Went Over the Mountain", "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow", and "Marlbrough s'en va-t-en guerre" (c. 1709). The tune is of unknown origin and probably predates these songs. It was well enough known in the early 19th century to be used for a passage in Wellington's Victory (1813) by Ludwig van Beethoven.[1]
