Try looking for it under johnny I hardly knew ye (I didn't try Mrs McGrath). And granted no one dies in either song, but johnny I hardly knew ye and Mrs McGrath are both tragic songs about young men losing their limbs in English wars. I can't resist the pun here, but in your arguement you don't have a leg to stand on....haroo, haroo...
