A little more information has come to light since the original question. Lizzie Higgins knew this but hardly ever sang it, and May Bradley also had a version, the words mixed with some from 'Blue Eyed Lover'. Lizzie's text, as recorded by Rod Stradling at the King's Head Folk Club, Islington, in 1970, can be seen at the Musical Traditions website:

The cd, In Memory of Lizzie Higgins, is well worth getting hold of.
