You're talking about "common metre", and it also includes Amazing Grace, the Gilligan's Island theme, House of the Rising Sun, Casey at the Bat, and the Lay of Nimrodel among many others.
You can swap any of the tunes and lyrics and they more or less work. One of my favorite music trivia things.
You... can sing anything to the Imperial March tune!
Suck suck suck suck my dick, eat my ass. Lick lick lick both my balls, chew my taint.
Finally! A tune I can sing my erotic backyardigans fan fiction too.
O say can you see, by the Jedi's lightsaber...
You can say fuck Donald Trump to the tune of Sweet Caroline
I will write this song the day I read his obituary with glee.
Why wait? It's gonna be hard to sing with a mouth full of champagne all day long...
And you should!
You can sing most Emily Dickens poetry to the Pokémon theme song too.
Also this gem:
(To the power rangers theme) Go, go ninja turtles! Teenage mutant ninja turtles!
There's tons of things like that, they're all great xD

When I was little, we'd listen to music while the TV was on and laugh when their mouths lined up with the words, which happened a lot
Wait. That comes from a song?
