Sorry Mick typical Nick Dow shortcut.

Brian, yes it's chicken and egg I suppose. I think the Somerset version might be related to The Bonnie Irish Boy {not to be confused with The Labouring Boy} Shirley Collins got a version from an Irish bus conductor in the 1950's
With a bit of adaption it might be worth singing. This is sort of where we came in isn't it?
