The English have a good analogue.

"A shoulder of mutton jumped over from France" is very similar in style to "Nottamun Town". The verse form is identical. Contributed by Cecil Sharp to Journal of the Folk Song Society #20 (1916). Another version is "As I was going to Banbury", in Sharp, Vaughn Williams et. al., A Selection of English Folk Songs. It is also in Cecil Sharp's Collection of English Folksongs". This is a traditional form of "Tom Tell-truth" in the Scarce Songs 1 file at www.erols.com/olsonw [The traditional versions aren't there because I don't know if they are still copyrighted.]

A similar song in Gaelic is "Amhran na mBeag" (Nonsense Song) in The Journal of the Irish Folk Song Society, #20, p. 23, 1923.
