If I searched this whole wide world
I’d never, never, never find me a girl
Who’d love me the way that you do
Huh, cause you’re, shama-lama, huh
in my rama-lama-ding-dong, baby, huh
You put the ooooh-mau-mau, oh-oh-oh-oh
(Back) into my smile child
Hey, that is why (that is why)
That is why (that is why)
You are my sugar-doo-dee-doop, huh (yeah)

You put the shama-lama, baby, ding-dong
Hey, you put the ooooh-mau-mau, oh-oh-oh-oh
Back into my smile child, huh
That is why (that is why)
That is why (that is why)
You are my sugar-doo-dee-doop (yeah)

And I love this love we share
Stronger than the others
No one else can compare
Stronger than the highest mountain and the deepest sea

Hey, you put the shama-lama baby in my rama-lama, ding-dong
Hey, you put the ooooh-mau-mau, oh-oh-oh-oh
Back into my smile child
Hey, that is why (that is why)
That is why (that is why)
You are my sugar-doo-dee-doop (yeah)

Shama-lama baby in my rama-lama, ding-dong
Hey, you put the ooooh-mau-mau, oh-oh-oh-oh
Back into my smile child, huh
Hey, that is why (that is why)
That is why (that is why)
You are my sugar-doo-dee-doop (yeah)

Great! I had forgotten all about those guys! My fave cover of Papa Ooh Mow Mow was by the Beach Boys in a live concert recording from ‘64 or ‘65 iirc.

The original was done by the Trashmen......and called Surfin' Bird. Very popular with the troops in VN and later on in Iraq, Joe.

I’m showing my age. This was a favorite of mine when I was a kid. An all-time classic.

I still have the original 45. They played it at my birthday party. We even had a special dance for it. Life is good!

[McLynnan]

Awesome, thanks. Caught this guy on Huckabee the other day. Dion and the Belmonts singing Runaround Sue. Great beat as they used to say on American Bandstand.

Whenever a aged hippie talks to me about Woodstock and how meaningful it was, I always like to remind him/her that Sha Na Na played there, where they were followed on stage by jimi Hendrix. Sort of puts the whole “Three Days of Peace and Music” thing in perspective.

So cool for a Friday night!!! Thanx
I saw them at the Fillmore West in 197? in San Francisco...
They opened with “Hey, you guys are a bunch of f***ing HIPPIES!”
The BEST!
