One of the great tunes out of New Orleans, done by the Dixie Cups. It's pretty much a-capella, with drumsticks and ashtrays banging on a table as percussion in the studio. It's based on a Mardi Gras ditty titled "Jock-A-Mo" all about the shenanigans and espionage between the parade float organizers (or krewes). It's a long story. I love this record!
