Friend of mine (now deceased) served in Black Watch being a serving soldier in Yorks and Lancs (I think) in 1939 and used to sing to march time 'Nellie Dean' variant

Anybody know this?

One bit had, 'Where I bust your jelly bean sweet Nellie Dean,' and the waters as they sweetly flow they seem to murmer soft and low your my hearts delight I love you so, Nellie Dean, Nellie Dean!

March time
