There's also a Newfoundland song to the same tune, called "Old Ragadoo"

I'm a hardened Newfoundlander, Michael Chaser is me name, I was born in Grange Harbour--I'm a fisherman by trade; I was born in the mornin' at a quarter after two With me hands in the pockets of me old ragadoo. ....

I can't remember the rest. It was sung by the Canadian group Tamarack on one of their first albums.
