I came to this page of IMDB wondering exactly the same as the first one who asked this, so thanks a lot for your answer! I don't undesrtand the lyrics, but love the tune :-)

It's a great song. This is actually an old folk song and Kaleo made their own version of it.

You can listen to the original here:

I think both versions have their charm. The original is of course a bit outdated, but in my opinion stands the test of time.

There is an english translation of the lyrics here:
