Hi Philippa, The song, sung by Dermott Barry appears on the recording 'As I Roved Out' recorded by Jean and George Pickow. And it's available on Ossian Records, Cork (OSS 15). I don't know if it's an alternative or not, but there's a song called 'Rachad-sa 'smo Cheati' (My Kitty and I will Go walking) on Tomas O Canain's 'With Pipe and Song' record (1980) on the Outlet Records label OAS 3055 of Belfast.
