THANK YOU colonel snow...this fact is really cool to know! I knew this song from the 80's UK TV Show "Let's Rock" but i don't know there was an original version left, Matt

Thanks Elvislady for the addition; indeed there was a version recorded by the Beach boys in 1964 for an album.

A Minnesota garage rock group by the name of the Trashmen scoredavily in the opening weeks of 1964 with their song "Surfin' Bird" which combined The Rivingtons' "Bird is the word" with the above song. If anything, Elvis picked it up from the Trashmen.

Let's not forget the version of Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow by Gary Glitter
