Joe sang this piece in the context of a private lesson, where the focus appears to be on the lilted segments, rather than on the song itself.
The tune that is lilted between the verses is "The Flowers of Edinburgh".
Song transcription:
‘What’s that on your back? What’s that in your sack?’
Said the false knight to the child on the road.
‘I’ve my books on me back, and my lunch in me sack!’
Said the child of seven years old.
[lilting]
‘What’s higher than a tree? What’s deeper than the sea?’
Said the false knight to the child on the road.
‘Heaven is higher than a tree, Hell is deeper than the sea!’
Said the maid of seven years old.
[lilting]
