Here's Ould John Braddleum Sung from Three North Country Folk Songs sung by John Buckley the Bass Singer from a rare 78 rpm shellac record released in the mid 1920s. The song which is no doubt of traditional origin is credited in this form to composer and vocalist Lyell Johnston born in Whitehaven Cumbria and published in 1915 & is of Cumbrian origin. Its a Children's song also called "Old John Braddleum", "Old John Braddelum" or "John Bradlelum".

Here's the lyrics copied from The Mudcat Discussion forum
