There's a snippet of a song, as best I can read, amongst some papers from the late 19th century. The song must have an English background, but it's not in the database.

The doctor came and sniffed the cane
His face as long as a Quaker.
He said, "Young man, what is your pain?"
Said I, "Sir, Betsy Baker!"

followed by a gap, before finishing off -

He would as soon have killed me.

Any information gratefully received.

Lhieuish,

Bobby Bob.
