Here is the information from the entry at the Levy Sheet Music Site.

Composer, Lyricist, Arranger: Words and Music by Chas. B. Lawlor and James W. Blake.

Form of Composition: strophic with chorus

Lyrics, of course, are in that renowned musical resource, The Digital Tradition. No tune, though.

But, Joe, what does that have to do with the parody Kevin requested?
I dunno. Just wanted to be complete.
