folktrax-archive.org has this entry for Admiral Nelson:

ADMIRAL NELSON - "Draw nigh my friends and neighbours" - good news - Plymouth Dock - Torbay - SKYLARK (1800) pp37-9 - RICHARDS-STUBBS EFS 1979 p163: Found in a book in a South Devon Library source unknown - Westaway Ms 1950.

And Admiral Nelson in Sky Lark (1800) has the Roud number V21204 but a different first line: "Come listen, my honies, awhile if you please".
