If we look at the case of a canon being fired, we find there is a force of the gun powder exploding creating a force of the canon pushing on the cannon ball and the cannon ball pushing back on the gun.
You will notice that the cannon has a new velocity that is in the opposite direction of the velocity of the cannon ball.
So the mass of the cannon ball is 20 times smaller than the mass of the cannon, as a result the velocity of the cannon ball is 20 times larger!

 BBC - Comedy Guide - Cannon And Ball
After years on the northern cabaret circuit, comedians Tommy Cannon (the lighter-haired one, real name Thomas Derbyshire) and Bobby Ball (the darker-haired, moustachioed and smaller one, real name Robert Harper) broke into TV as part of Bruce Forsyth's Big Night, a weekly compendium of stand-alone items presented by Brucie on Saturday nights in late 1978.
The former welders from Oldham, who had previously worked under the name the Harper Brothers, became major stars very quickly, soon winning their first own series, which, unfortunately for them, was interrupted by the ITV network strike of 1979.
Nonetheless, with their Abbott And Costello-like antics and catchphrases such as 'Rock on, Tommy' they retained a strong presence on ITV through the 1980s, and moved into the cinema in 1983 with their oneoff movie The Boys In Blue (director Val Guest).

In the first stanza I've chosen "She's the 'boes accomodation called the Wabash Cannon Ball." This may be the rarest of several known variations of this line – but, I believe it is the most likely candidate as the original line.
Lomax transcribed this as "She's the 'boes accomodation on the Wabash Cannon Ball." I believe that either he or the singer he was collecting the song from misheard "called" as "on." It's easy to imagine that happening with a fast song and a hillbilly singer.
