Bawdy Song Title?

A very VERY long time ago a friend's father had a cassette (remember those?) which had bawdy, adult songs sung by an Australian band. There are only two that I remember; the first was "the dickie di do song" which I much later learned was The Mayor Of Bayswater (the hairs on her dickie di do hung down to her knees).
The second was a funny tale where the last word of each second line (which should have been a rude word) was cut off, giving the timing an off kilter feel, and the next line fitted straight in, ie:
"...while the boys in the horse shed were shovelling (shit)
Sawdust and shavings that lay on the floor
If you like my little story I'll tell you some more."
and
"... and showed me her (cunt)
(spoken) Country songs have been around for many years, here's a little one for you now."

Can anyone tell me the name of the second song, or maybe even the album title? Google isn't helping at all. The cassette was pirated so no details.

Let me tell you a story about a man named Jed, poor mountaineer nearly fucked his family dead, then one day while rooting Elly may….. out from her cunt came a bubbling spray…… spunk that is….. white gold….. Texas tea.

There were quite a few records / cassettes around that were bawdy and ribald. The one you may be referring to is possibly a cassette called Dirty Ditties on the J&B Records label.

I think you're talking about 2 albums my friends, and I, composed and performed in the 70's. They were a mainstream band and we did the dirty ones as a bit of fun. First was, "Oh What A Beauty", and the second was , "Work O fart"

There was a small book put out in the 1960s by I think the Waterside Workers Union, called "Snatches and Lays", it was full of those ditties.
