DADDY DEWDROP- "CHICK-A-BOOM (DON'T YA JES' LOVE IT)"

DADDY DEWDROP IS CLEVELAND SINGER RICHARD MONDA. THIS SONG ROSE TO # 9 IN 1971.
LYRICS: Last night I had a crazy dream
'bout a chick in a black bikini, ugh!
Ah, she looked so good, she couldn't be real
She must be a magic genie!

But she disappeared around the corner
All I saw were three doors and the top of her bikini
I made it through the first door, there was a party goin' on
I asked about the chick but what they said was freaky...

Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't ya just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't you just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't ya just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom

I found the bottom part behind the second door
Which took me to Africa, I presume
This really far-out cat was screamin' half-crazy
"Whomp-bobba-looba ba-lomp-bam-boom"
I said, "Hey man, cut that jive and tell me where the chick went"
But he looked at me, as spaced as could be
And said these words but I wonder what he meant...

Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't ya just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't you just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't ya just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom

Ah, don't ya just love it
Um hmm, don't ya just love it
Don't ya love it, don't ya love it
Oh yeah, don't ya love it

Don't ya just love it now

I opened the third door and there she was
And she whispered so sexy and low Ooo!
I tried to do the same and impress her with my style
But why I said this, I'll never know...

Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't ya just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't you just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, don't ya just love it
Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom

Chick-a-boom, chick-a-b

rwells, thank YOU!!! I was looking for this song for almost 35 years! I thought it was the Partridge Family - so that wasn't helping- and itunes needs a letter perfect set to search. So RAD! Thanks again!

@gatortailor- You have a great ear !  I heard the difference too. This is a more recent re-recording by DewDrop for a "Seventies Compilation" or something. The recording here is not the recording on the 45 pictured . I played it to death too! -Good shot gator!

I first heard this song on a Saturday morning cartoon. This song is right up there with Disco Jesus by Tammy Faye.
