From the Wikipedia article

The Herring Song, also known as Bolliton Sands, The Red Herring and Jolly Red Herring is a folk-song (Roud 128) found in various forms and believed to be associated with the once-thriving herring-fishing industry in the North Sea. Several different variants of the song are known. A version of "The Red Herring" which was collected at South Zeal is included in the Baring-Gould manuscripts.
