It was down in the Lehigh Valley, me and my old friend Bill
Bill said 'tell us a story', so this is the story I told...
etc.

Quite different from the other versions but the same general theme. My dad told me this when I was growing up in London in the 1970s / 80s, but I have no idea where he would have got it from - he was born in India, moved to Dorset as a child, went to high school in Canada and then spent several years in the Merchant Navy.
