Subject: RE: Origins of 'Soldier's Joy'?
Yes; that's an alternative title.  There are earlier discussions at  Soldier's Joy  Country of Orgin of Soldiers Joy?  and  Need lyrics to old fiddle tunes

I've heard a Shetland version that sounds even more Scandinavian than the Swedish one, come to think of it.
