I suddenly remembered this tune last night: quite jolly; used to sing a rather insipid and not-very-trad-sounding set of words to it at school in the 50s; also "Liverpool Barrow-boy" (Spinners et al.). Only 14 hits on Google, and all from school singing/music lessons! One gives it as 18th century, several as Irish and one as English/Irish.

Anyone really know where it comes from?

I thought it might go well as a set with the tune of "Brighton Camp"; is it done to mix English and Irish tunes (if it is Irish)?
