Thanks Lighter---never thought to look south of the border as the song is in broad Scots with words in it that have almost died out here.

The only other clue lies in the first line of the first verse---now if there be a Barony Road in or near the Northumberland Village we will have struck gold.


Incidentally this is one of those floating country songs that do not appear in any of the collections, as far as I can see.
