The transcription was mine (and thanks for the spelling correction - too hasty typing in from the CD this morning). Sadly, I can't lay my hands on either Rummy Conjouring Tricks or I Once Was A Daysman (although I'm sure I had both - I can find other tapes/records by both, just not those two); so if anyone else can supply those, please do.

With regard to your second question, Roud lists 49 entries for the song, including versions from Jeannie Robertson, Belle Stewart and Sheila Stewart. Printed Scottish versions are easily available in Ord BSaB (My Lovely Nancy), Kennedy FoBaI (version of Queen Among the Heather from Jeannie) and Greig-Duncan Vol 5.
