My memory may be faulty, but I think this is an Eric Bogle song. Looking through his discography, it might be titled 'Traditional Folksinger's Lament'. If the writer is not Bogle, it is some Australian folkie.

I heard a song when I was in Ireland this summer, and I would really like to learn it, but I have no idea what the name of it is. The chorus goes somethin' like this: "I said no, no!/A thousand times no!/I'd rather see me own life blood spillin'/I'd sing anything/'cept God Save the Queen/and I won't sing a bit of Bob Dylan" It was a nice catchy tune, and I don't personally have anything against Bob Dylan. The song was just about a guy who was a folk singer, and everywhere he went people wanted to hear Bob Dylan and he didn't want to play Bob Dylan. Perhaps Bob Dylan wrote it himself; I have no idea. I just would really like to learn the song, so if anyone knows it or knows a link to it, I would be very, very greatful. Thank you!
