The song was originally released as a single on the ABC-Paramount label (10237). LyricsIn this song, Mann sings about the frequent use of nonsense lyrics in doo-wop music, and how his girl fell in love with him after listening to several such songs. Examples of the type of song referred to include the Marcels' version of "Blue Moon" (in which they sing "Bomp bomp ba bomp, ba bomp ba bomp bomp" and "dip-de-dip-de-dip")[1] and the Edsels' "Rama-Lama-Ding-Dong", both of which charted earlier the same year.[2] The spoken part is a reference to the song "Little Darlin'" by the Diamonds.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} "Boogidy shoo" can be found in the lyrics to "Pony Time" by Chubby Checker, released earlier that year.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} Mann was backed up by the Halos,[3] a doo-wop group of its own renown that had a single top-40 hit with "Nag" and also sang on Curtis Lee's hit "Pretty Little Angel Eyes." The song inspired the title of an eponymous music magazine.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} The song fits into the category of "self-referential" songs.{{according to whom|date=September 2018}} Rock songs are often about rock, reggae songs about reggae, rap songs about rap, etc.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} In this particular song that aspect is accentuated by the fact that Mann is a songwriter singing about songwriters.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} Chart performanceThe single debuted on Billboards Hot 100 on August 7, 1961, and remained for twelve weeks, peaking at #7.[2] Mann's version did not chart in the UK, though a cover version by the Viscounts reached # 21 there in September, 1961, and another version by Showaddywaddy charted at # 37 in August 1982.[4] In popular culture{{refimprove section|date=September 2018}}The song has been covered or referenced by:

A parody titled "Who Put the Mush" was written and performed by The McCalmans. In an inversion of the original song, the singer's girlfriend leaves him due to the nonsense lyrics in his folk music.[7] It was released in 1994 on the album Songs From Scotland.[8] Bentley Rhythm Ace had a track called "Who Put the Bom in the Bom Bom Diddleye Bom" on their debut album.
