I have been asked if I can trace this song, possibly from the Hull area. Please can anyone help?


When I was young and in my pram
I used to sail the seas
I stepped on board a pirate ship
And set for the Irish sea.

Or
Another variant begins:-

When I was young, I went to school,
To learn my ABC.
I stepped on board a washing-tub,
And set for the Irish Sea.
