The SWEET VIOLETS I know are nothing like those above and the version I have of Young Farmer goes:

There was a young farmer who sat on a rick,
Bawling and shouting and waving his
Fist at a lady who sat on the rocks
Teaching young boys how to play with their
Bows and their arrows and weapons of yore
When along came a lady who looked like a
Decent young lady who walked like a duck,
She said she had found out a new way to
Educate the children to sew and to knit,
While the men of the manor were shovelling
Muck from the barnyard and dirt from the byre
Where the lord of the manor was pulling his
Horse from the stable to go on the hunt
While the lady of the manor was powdering her
Face - what did you think I was going to say?
I'll sing it another day.

Kinda like THE CLEAN SONG by Oscar Brand - I'll see if I can find SWEET VIOLETS
