Songs of Ireland and Other Lands (New York: D. & J. Sadlier & Co., 1847), page 181, has 2 different lines in verse 3:

3. If I was made the Emperor
Of Russia to command,
Or Julius Caesar, or the Lord
Lieutenant of the land,
I'd give my plate and golden store,
I'd give up my army,
The horse, the rifles, and the foot,
And the Royal artillery.
Ochone, ochone.

...and otherwise agrees with the "Boucicault" version posted by Alice above. However, this book gives no attribution.
