Shirley certainly did . .

The finest plum pudding you ever had seen They were black, white, yellow and green . .

We had it on a tape of a radio broadcast of hers (where she tells a very funny story of visiting a fortune teller, as a lead-in to "The Gipsy's Wedding Day").

No idea if I can find it (but I'll have a look), and don't think she attributes it to anyone. I'd guess it was "Trad".
