Subject: Green Grow The Rushes Oh, discrepency

I hope I didn't overlook an existing thread on this topic but the search didn't find any that seemed to fit.

I'm listening to GGTR Oh, and I decided to look up the lyrics. But the lyrics I found here have to do with counting and what I'm listening to doesn't. The closest I found to what I'm listening to was on a different site and it was missing a stanza or two. Is this normal or is something up?

"Give me a quiet hour at en/ My arms around my dearie oh/ Worldy cares and worldly men/ May a gay topsy turvy ohh..."

Thats a stanza of what I'm listening too.

The above was posted in another thread. I couldn't find the lyrics Lynn is talking about here. Can anybody give full lyrics for Lynn's version? It seems to be and update of the Robert Burns Rushes (click) that's in the Digital Tradition.
