Sorry to Necro a subject,

I only ever knew the first verse, slightly different from the rest, of course.

I found an old stocking and filled it wi' lead,
I 'it an old lady right over the 'ead,
A policeman come runnin' an' asked me my name,
I gave 'im the answer with a public bog chain.

And, yes, that was sung to the tune of "Down in the Valley" . . .
