Can you tell me anything about this song e.g. where it comes from and what time period. My Grandmother used to sing this to us as children. She was born in 1889 in Australia. Her grandfather was from Northern Ireland and her grandmother from England. The song version that I know is as follows: When I was a chicken as big as a hen Me mother hit me so I hit her again Me father came out and gave me a clout So I upped with the hammer and flattened him out Me cruel mother killed me Me poor father ate me Me little sister sucked me bones and laid them on a log It was sung to what sounds like a little Irish tune. I would appreciate any help you can give me as I have never found anyone else who is familiar with it.
