Hi!

If you want to look for some traditional versions, there is an English set in Marrow Bones, a small book of songs from the Hammond & Gardiner manuscripts published by the English Folk Dance & Song Society. The song has been collected in Canada as well. Peggy Seeger was the first person I ever heard sing this.

All the best,
Dan
