Origins: Up the Norran Water

I have looked for the original poem of this song (also recorded as "Up a Winding River") to no avail. All I find are recordings of it and references to Jim Malcolm and to a parody. Does anyone have information about the origin?

Thanks, Stewie. I was looking for the original but the parody is easier to find!
