O.k., yes I have: Louie Killen on "Along the Coaly Tyne". Unrelated lyrics, as far as I can understand them! Tune also used by the Ian Campbell Folk Group for "The Sandgate Dandle" on Coaldust Ballads. (Words by the blind fiddler, Robert Nunn, who died in 1853.)

And, that is the other item that comes up when you enter "Liverpool Lullaby" into the DT search box. It's listed as "Dol-li-a", for some strange reason. There's a note about Stan Kelly's use of the tune there... need to get it with the LL lyrics! (I'll pursue the DT Attribution permathread.)
