Sea Gypsies. The far side of the world.

Has anyone seen this doc.? DrW? I've had this little ballad from the show bouncing around in my head for a year now. So be warned, don't click on the link unless you have a good system for removing endless ditty loops from your brain.
My best deciphering of the lyrics:
We've got scurvy in our fingers,
Tattoo's on our toes-es,
and we're sailing on the high seas,
Saltwater in our noses.
Swabbing decks and closing hatches,
we eats just what we catches,
we are pirates, and we likes to sail the seas.
We are pirates, and we goes just where we please.
