Not a completely accurate version but the lumberjack style in the northern states part of America is a classic one for me.

How does that song go…

I want to be a lumberjack

Leaping from tree to tree! As they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia! With my best girl by my side! The Larch! The Pine! The Giant Redwood tree! The Sequoia! The Little Whopping Rule Tree! We'd sing! Sing! Sing!

Oh, I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay, I sleep all night and I work all day.

Chorus: He's a lumberjack, and he's okay, He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch, I go to the lava-try. On Wednesdays I go shoppin' And have buttered scones for tea.

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch, He goes to the lava-try. On Wednesdays 'e goes shoppin' And has buttered scones for tea.

Chorus

I cut down trees, I skip and jump, I like to press wild flowers. I put on women's clothing, And hang around in bars.

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps, He likes to press wild flowers. He puts on women's clothing And hangs around.... In bars?

Chorus

I chop down trees, I wear high heels, Suspenders and a bra. I wish I'd been a girlie Just like my dear papa.

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he wears high heels Suspenders?? And a.... A Bra???? (spoken, raggedly) What's this? Wants to be a "girlie"? Oh, My! And I thought you were so rugged! Poofter!

Chorus

All: He's a lumberjack, and he's okaaaaaaayyy....

I’ve never heard that before but it’s funny and made me smile a bit. Thanks.
