hilarious music video. I first heard this song back in the mid-late 1980's when my grandfather purchased a Ray Stevens "Greatest Hits" cassette tape. That collection from 1987 is where I heard several Ray Stevens songs for the very first time. I became a fan for life at that moment.
@OsakaSmallFry: actually, Carol Ponder is the woman playing Fatima in this video. Janice Copeland was the actress that played Margaret in "It's Me Again, Margaret" as well as Sister Bertha in the "Mississippi Squirrel" video.
I love how all his videos and songs are like telling a story i really love that XD esp cuz it makes me listen more lol if this guy wrote books he would be awesome@it
@kitekunisaki2000: By newer version what exactly do you mean? Ray wrote this song and originally recorded it in 1962 and then he re-recorded it in 1969 and then re-recorded it a third time in 1995 which is what we hear on this music video. There have only been three recordings of this song from Ray. If anyone else has recorded this song then it's news to me.
Eatin on rasin, grape, apricot, pomegranate, bowl of chitlines, two bananas, three candy bars, sippin on an ice cold Coca-Cola, listenin to her transistor, and singin "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor?" Just switch Coca Cola with RC, take out the pomegranata and apricot, and put Allison Kraus in there and you've got my beautiful girlfriend.

i prefer the original 1962 recording.
It is to bad they change some of the words. It was really great the way it was.
