That's exactly the text posted here by Wolfgang some years ago from the same book, and now in the DT (see links above), apart from a changed word or two. It was copied from Colm O Lochlainn, Irish Street Ballads, Dublin: Three Candles, 1939, 148-9.

O Lochlainn noted: "Learnt from W Feenan, fisherman of Ardglass, 1913. He had learnt it from a Donegal girl; a variant of the air was sung to another ballad - 'Donegal's the place for all, 'tis there I'd like to be.' I gave this to D J O'S who printed it in IFS [Journal of the Irish Folk Song Society] xviii, [1929] 29."

That would appear to be the song's earliest appearance in print, though much of it is obviously modelled on earlier songs. It would a sad thing if the book you mention didn't bother to acknowledge O Lochlainn and the sources he took care to credit.
