NOTES [87 words]: This seems to have become quite popular with performers making recordings for preschool children -- so much so that I am inclined to think that it has gone from folk to "pop." But John5918 apparently learned it long ago, orally, so I am (very hesitantly) including it here. He records that "Songs like that were very popular when the group were feeling silly or drunk (usually both) and could go on for a long time before one got bored. I recall there was always a lot of impromptu and often impressive harmonisation." - RBW
