Sally Sloane sang a song to the same melody as this jig during the recording session with John Meredith. She called it the Chandler's Wife and it sounds like she used the 'nicky nick nack' to substitute for some bawdy words. I can't make out the lyrics to the song but you can hear the original recording at http://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-214815261/listen/0-862~0-911   (if using Chrome browser)
