Only one traditional version is listed in Steve Roud's folk song index, Roud# 3488. It's "Walker Pit and Byker Shore", with music, in Dawney's 'Doon the Waggon Way', which I don't have. It was collected from Jack Elliot of Birtley. I have one LP of Jack Elliot's songs and tunes, but it's not on that.
