The lyrics are in the Bodleian Library (Harding B 22 (370). The song is in Andrew Gant's Folk Songs of the British Isles (1997), which is taken "from the Madden Collection of Ballads, Cambridge." Recording is on THE BOSTON CAMERATA: Trav'ling Home; the notes say:

Farewell ye green fields -- Greenfield
"This very popular English song of the late eighteenth century remained current in the U.S. well into early twentieth century. It also gave birth to a number of religious imitations. This one, about Joseph and his brethren, comes from a Pennsyvania Mennonite book in shape notes; both the German and English texts we sing here are present in that source."
