I have lyrics for a song "The Blacksmith" Apparently this is not correct title as I cannot find either the lyrics or the melody. Collected from a local folk singer. I cannot recall his name.

First line of song: Twenty years ago last Christmas came a tender to My wife.

First line of Chorus: Sure I dream as the hammer strikes the anvil.

any leads as to the origin of this song or it's title and the music
in any format would be appreciated. Thanks
