There are some different versions of this, I lost two of mine, but I'll have a look for any other copies.

Cilla Black did a version of this and called it the Liverpool Lullaby, went something like the original version I had, but modernised. It started off:

Ee, thou art a mucky kid
Dirty as a dustbin lid
When he hears the things you did,
Yerl gerra belt from yer da.

Went on about strawberry jam tart in his hair. Try a search under the first line and you might get something.
