George Washington crossed the Delaware

Does anyone know the words, and/or source, for a song that begins (approximately):

George Washington crossed the Delaware in 1776 He crossed it to the Jersey side Now the place was celebrated for its pottery and bricks Over on the Jersey side

---

The song probably goes back to the early 1900s, if not before.

Thanks!
