Thank you Reinhard for the bumper crop of songs from your excellent Mainly Norfolk site. Here are a few more links for this one:

BUTCHER BOY (THE) aka Hanged I Shall Be(Roud 980; Laws J19)

It was there that he met with a fair young maid
With dark and a rolling eye,
And he promised for to marry her
On the month of sweet July.
