I stumbled on this on YouTube last night.
It's a very early Dubliners song, but without Luke Kelly.
The singer is a guy I never heard of, Bobby Lynch.
There is a Luke Kelly version, which is heretically, inferior. Luke sings it like a dirge, while Bobby sings about getting legs blown off in a more … fun way.

No 2 son (the bagpiper) gave me a copy of this a couple of years as part of a CD of Scots-Irish music

Neat little tune
