"My Aunt Jane" is an old Belfast song.
"On A Hillside Stands A Lady" is a skipping song
"One O'Leary" is also a skipping song (different to the "One, Two, Three, O'Leary", Des O'Connor sang)
My Mummy Told Me is "The Clapping Song" originally released by Shirley Ellis. Also used as a skipping song.

My mammy told me... that if I was goody that she would buy me a (rubber) dolly. Then something about kissing a soldier. Not sure of name but feel it was by Jackie Wilson - old soul singer from 70's?. PS we used to alter the words and it was popular to sing Rubber Johny(ie condom )
One O'leary sounds like a childrens playground song. It went something like one two three O'leary (O'lary) I saw my aunty mary sitting on a (bumbalary) - the rest was sort of gibberish.
Hope this helps you get the answers

If the last one goes:
My mama told me, If I was goody, Then she would buy me, A rubber dolly...

Then it's 'The Clapping Song' which was recorded by Shirley Ellis way back when.

Would you know any of the others if you found the next lines?

3, 6, 9, the goose drank wine, the monkey chewed tobacco on the street car line, the line broke the monkey got choked and they all went to heaven in a little rowing boat.

Nearly Pepzi!

I remember it as My momma told me that she would buy me a rubber johnny! Shirly something, I think it was called the Clapping Song

And the Des O Connor song was something like - One two three o leary, games I played with Mary.

Both sound very X rated!

On a hillside stands a lady,
Who she is we do not know,
All she wants is gold and silver,
All she lacks is a man to hold.

That's the version I heard anyway. We used to sing it while skipping in the playground in primary school. It's rather poignant, don't you think?
