April 10th, 1958 - Bobby Darin recorded "Splish Splash."

splish splash
I was taking a bath
long about a staurday night

Rub dub
Just relaxin in the tub
Thinkin everything was alright

Well I stepped out the tub
Put my feet on the floor
I wrapped my towel around me
And I opened up the door
and then
Splish Splash
I jumped back in the bath
well how was I to know there
was a party goin on?

There was a splishin and splashin
splishin' and a splashin
Rollin and a strollin
Rollin and a strollin
movin and a grovin
Movin and a grovin
Reeling with the feeling
Rellin with the feeling
Splishin ana a splashin
Rollin and a strollin
On a saturday night

Bing bang
I saw the whole gang
Dancin on my livin room rug
Flip Flop
They were doin the bop
And they all had their dancin shoes on
There was lollipop, and peggy sue,
good Golly miss molly was even there too
well a Splish splash
I forgot about the bath
I went and put my dancin shoes on

There was a splishin and splashin
splishin' and a splashin
Rollin and a strollin
Rollin and a strollin
movin and a grovin
Movin and a grovin
Reeling with the feeling
Rellin with the feeling
Splishin ana a splashin
Rollin and a strollin
On a saturday night

I was splishin and a splashin
rollin and a strollin
movin and a groovin
realin with the feelin

Splishin and a splashin
on a saturday night

OH Nuts!

Whatta talent, sadly taken from us to early. I love his singing (all of it) but esp. Mack The Knife. He also did a lot of work for the American Heart Assocation. May he rest in peace. He was a terrific man and entertainer.

I have never cared for "Splish Splash" and think it was a waste of Bobby Darin's talent just like Chuck Berry's "My Ding-a-Ling."

A great singer and a great and very catchy song! As Rich said Bobby left us far too soon.
