Anyone know the words to a song my grandmother (born 1886) used to sing to us. I guess it was a music hall song of around the turn of the century. It was about a girl who had to hang onto the bell to stop the curfew ringing, so her father wouldn't be hung. The chorus went:-

"Hang on the bell Nellie, hang on the bell, Your poor father's locked in a cold prison cell. As you swing to the left and you swing to the right, Remember the curfew must never ring tonight!"

Any help would be gratefully received,
