GUEST,Allan S. Lyr Req: Over the Hill to the Poorhouse (8) the Hill to the poorhouse 09 Sep 00

Just heard a song today the first line of the chorus is "Over the hill to the poorhouse" Story line is about a man who has given all to his sons? Children? and finally lets then have his house. at which point they turn him out and he must now go to the poorhouse. THis sounds like it's from the turn of the century 1800's that is though it could still happen today. Where can I find the words and tune.
