I was just roaming the radio dial and came across this 50s doo-wop song; theres some instrumentals occasionally broken up by a voice over. One of the voice-overs go something like this:

“What we got here is a ricochet muffin: You don’t eat it the first time, you can catch it on the rebound!”

another is:

“MMMMMM…whaddaya expect to get fer nuthin?”

What’s the song and who performed it?

The band is **The Chips** and the song is _Rubber Biscuit_

The **Blues Brothers** did a cover of it.

Name this doo-wop:

_I gave you my high school ring  
At the root beer stand  
We had a teenage love  
I thought it was sharp; it was really so grand!_
