[PhillyCheeseDip]

@mrbroad1987 yes sir 'mrbroad1987' THIS IS THE ORIGINAL!! but theres been a few other 'covers' if you will...Doctors and the medics.. the kentucky headhunters and even elton john

@slimboy1927

Maybe, but this version is much better than the original version.

[PhillyCheeseDip]

@jlast450 the song was actually written and recorded by Norman Greenbaum!!! this IS THE ORIGINAL!!! GOOGLE IT!!! AND MAY GOD BLEES YOU AND YOURS :)

however The Kentucky headhunters did a better job on it i think!!

This is not the original artist..UR hearing. The Serie; Best of Top of the Pops

Respect for their close to original recordings...
