who sang ram a lang a ding dong

[andy hughes]

It's a line in the song Who Put The Bomp? by Barry Mann - is that what you are after?

[Johnmof]

It's been covered by a number of artists, including Showaddywaddy. I think the original was by the Edsels.

[Craig007]

RAMA LAMA DING DONG was a number 17 hit in 1978 for ROCKY SHARPE and the REPLAYS

What fantastic lyrics.Written by Barry Mann and Gerry Goffin in the early sixties.

Who put the bomp in the bomp bah bomp bah bomp.

Who put the ram in the rama lama ding dong

Who put the bop in the in the bop shoo bop shoo bop

Who put the dip in the dip da dip da dip

Who was that man, I'd like to shake his hand

He made my baby fall in love with me.

Yes, they don't write them like that anymore!!!(thank goodness, I hear you cry)

OK, things are getting a little confuddled here.

Rama Lama Ding Dong - original artists The Edsels, later covered by Rocky Sharpe & The Replays.

Who Put The Bomp - original artist Barry Mann (who also co-wrote it), later covered by Showaddywaddy.

[missprim]

Well done littleoldyou. Were the lyrics as good in Rama Lama Ding Dong as they were in Who Put The Bomp?

[littleoldme]

Feel free to judge for yourself ;-)
