Edit, I missed the obvious, canoe-kayaker; plus an extra verse:

I thought I heard my old man say
John canoe-kayaker in the bay
Today today I'm going away
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

Too ri ay, Ooooooooooooo, too ri ay
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

I'll paddle out into the bay
John canoe-kayaker in the bay
Make the life insurance pay
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

Too ri ay, Ooooooooooooo, too ri ay
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

I'll meet my wife in far off lands
John canoe-kayaker in the bay
Photographed there holding hands
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

Too ri ay, Ooooooooooooo, too ri ay
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

Said I'd lost my memoreee
John canoe-kayaker in the bay
They'll lock me up and hide the key
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

Too ri ay, Ooooooooooooo, too ri ay
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

I hid behind the wardrobe door
John canoe-kayaker in the bay
And now I'll face the weight of law
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay

Too ri ay, Ooooooooooooo, too ri ay
John canoe-kayaker too ri ay
