Who Put The Bomp Lyrics

I'd like to thank the guy
who wrote the song
that made my baby fall in love with me...

Who put the bomp in the bomp-a-bomp-a-bomp?
Who put the ram in the ram-a-lam-a-ding-dong?
Who put the bop in the bop-she-bop-she-bop?
Who put the dip in the dib-de-dip-de-dip?

Who is that man?
I'd like to shake his hand!
He made my baby fall in love with me

When my baby heard
bomb-a-bo-bomp-a-bomp-a-bomp-bomp
Every word went right into her heart
And when she heard them singing
ram-a-lama-lama-lama-lama-ding-dong
She said we'd never have to part

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I love this song, but the ending! Man, it's so unbearably cheesy! But, I guess it is a 60's song. haha.

"Darling... bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp. And my honey.... rama-lama-ding-dong........ FOREVER. And when I say... dip-di-dip-di-dip-di-dip... you know i mean it from the bottom of my boogiety, boogiety, boogiety shoop."

How can this song not make you happy? :)
