Came across the following song in the Bodley Ballad collection, and thought it looked a bit familiar:

Sarah, Sarah, or a Donkey cart made for two
Written by Harry Bedford

Chorus is

Sarah, Sarah, make up your mind now do
I shall go fair barmy if I don't get hitched to you
Come,don't be aggravating
There's a home for you awaiting,
And you can ride bymy side in a donkey cart built for two

Maybe she comes from North Looe?

It made me think of:

Mary, Mary (TUNE: Daisy Belle)

Mary, Mary, lived with her aunt in Kew,
Big and hairy, she stood about six foot two.
I told her we'd never marry
She changed her name to Harry
Now her big feet, hey pound the beat
'Cos she's one of our "Boys in Blue".

I think I'd better sneak away quietly.

Walrus

Gives a new meaning to re-cycling songs?
