Anyone remember this song?

    It was always on the radio when I was a kid - around '87-'91? Not sure of the exact year.

    It sounded like an Irish Trad song, and Heinz even used it in a TV commercial.

    Anyway, the words went:

    "And it goes.....die die diddly bum, diddly bop a die dum, die diddly obba dobba dibba dobba day, diddly eye die, diddly bum, diddly bop a die dum, die diddly obba dobba dibba dobba day, OH, diddly bum, diddly bum, diddly bum, diddly bum, diddly bum, diddly bum, dibba dobba day, dee dum, dee dum, dee dum, de die dum, whoop diddy whoop whoop, dibba dobba day!"

    Anyone? I want to download it and hear it again. It has been stuck in my head for years!

    The Heinz version in the advert went like this: "And it goes.....die die diddly bum, diddly bop a die dum, die diddly obba dobba Beanz Meanz Heinz, diddly eye die......"

    Seriously - it was a real song, and it's not the Hamsterdance.
