Polly Wolly Doodle (All Day) is first recorded in 1880, Harvard Student Songs. See Traditional Ballad Index, CSUfresno. The same tune is used for Fiddler's Bitch and other tunes.
In 1919, Lucy Maude Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables fame) mentioned the song in "Rainbow Valley." Cornelia complained about the impropriety of singing it in a graveyard. Anne replied that many there probably sang it when they were alive, and would like to hear it again.
I would guess that your version was made for the film.
There are many verses. I will add some to the DT when I get time.
