Thanks, Derek. Our hope for a revelation from English Dance & Song turned out to be just a loop back to Song Fest. I found the song only in the 1955 edition of Song Fest, not in earlier editions. I did not see the explanation from Richard Best - maybe that wasn't published in the Song Fest book.
So, we're still in a puzzlement. It's a very clever song, but my guess is that it's modern.
