Two updates:

I posted the Belafonte lyrics mentioned above here:
https://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=163347

and I think this thread's song is on:

The Back Porch Majority, Riverboat Days!, LP (Mono) Epic LN 24149, 1965, trk. A5, w. P. Garvey, m. V. Garvey.

For more on the former Mr. & Mrs. G. see here:

The copyright was held by Randy Spark's Cherrybell Music. (also New Christy Minstrels &c)

Couldn't find it on YT and my copy has gone walkabout so lyrics to follow... hopefully.
