Tune Req: I Popped Out

Dear Group,

I found lyrics online to a song, "I Popped Out"... the first verse and chorus is as follows:

I used to be a sailor, I sailed upon the sea,
And when I was at home my wife was very good to me,
But I commenced to worry and to wonder what she'd do,
When I was off a-sailing out upon the ocean blue.

What if I popped out and I caught her unawares,
Popped out sudden from the cupboard in the stairs,
Popped out, popped up, and took her by surprise,
Sometimes me boys it's better to be ignorant than wise.

Does anyone know the melody/tune or the derivation of the song?
Thanks!...

Dan O'Driscoll

What a relief. I was afraid this was going to be a Janet Jackson thread.
