Guess The Song

The following lyrics come from a famous children's song, except I removed a few of the words. See if you can guess what song it is:

In a canyon

Dwelt his daughter

Dreadful sorry

She was like a fairy

Drove ducklings to the water

Hit her foot against a splinter

Fell into foaming brine

Ruby lips above water

Blowing bubbles

But alas, I was no swimmer

In my dreams she still doth haunt me

Robed in garments soaked

In life I used to hug her

Now she's dead

Hint: if you give up, you can google some of the words to get the answer.
