Notes We used to sing this at Grace Lutheran elementary school in the late 70s. I know that there are many versions of this, but the only ones I recall singing were the garbage can and frying pan varieties.
Rating Gross to naughty

I'm Popeye the sailor man
I live in a garbage can
I eat all the worms
And spit out the germs
I'm Popeye the sailor man

--or--

I'm Popeye the sailor man
I live in a frying pan
I turned up the gas
And burned off my *ss
I'm Popeye the sailor man

Notes I remember this differently than you do, but with nonsense words that indicate I probably never learned the words properly. Here's another version.

I'm Popeye the sailor man
I live in a garbage can
I like to go swimmin'
With bow-legged women
I'm Popeye the sailor man.
