Another verse

Come my boy my fine wee man
Run down the road, fast as you can
Pay the money to the sweetie man
For a bag of Coulter's Candy

I first hear the song with just three verses in The Railway, Fratton Southsea Hants back in the early 70s. It was the mammy's knee, wee Jeannie (rickle of bone) and Little Annie's greetin too verses.

I have the name Robert Coltart written by it but what the connection is I do not know.
