I've been trying with some difficulty to decipher the lyrics to the Georgia Ann Griffin version linked by Kevin W. above. Can anyone help me with the truncated verse 2? I'm not at all confident about the dancehall, though I'm pretty sure about the bar-room.

"The Bad Girls Lament" sung by Mrs. Georgia Ann Griffin of Newberry, Alachua, Florida, originally from Dooly County, Georgia, recorded by John Lomax in 1937.

As I was a-walking by St James’s hospital
As I was a walking one morning in May
It’s who should I meet but my own dear daughter
Wrapped up in white linen and there did she [go?]

It’s first to the bar-room and then to the [dancehall?]
[And not to the dance room and not on my grave]??

Oh it’s six jolly sportsman to carry my coffin
It’s six pretty fair maids to carry me there
And each one them a bunch of red roses
To keep them from smelling me as they carry me along


Interesting to note the reference to the bar-room. Then compare Mrs Griffin's last verse with this couplet from Sussex (Edith Sebbage):

And into my coffin throw handfuls of roses
So as they may smell me as I go along
