Facts:

The Marathons of "Peanut Butter" (1961) fame were actually the Vibrations. The Arvee label wanted to release another hit single but apparently could not wait for the Olympics (Arvee's then-main act) to get back from their tour. So Arvee signed on the Vibrations, then under contract with Chess, to record "Peanut Butter." What followed was a really sticky situation which led to various re-recordings of "Peanut Butter" by both the Vibrations (on Chess/Argo) and some unknown group scraped together by Arvee and given the Marathons moniker. Besides "Peanut Butter" (b/w "Talkin' Trash"), there were no other songs recorded by the Vibrations as the Marathons (Captain Wayne)

Song Lyrics:

Well, there's a food goin' round that's a sticky, sticky goo
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
Oh well, it tastes so good, but it's so hard to chew
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
All my friends tell me that they dig it the most
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
Early in the morning when they spread it on toast
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
I like peanut butter, creamy peanut butter,
chunky peanut butter, too.
Peanut, Peanut butter,
Peanut, Peanut butter,
Peanut, Peanut butter,
I like peanut butter, creamy peanut butter,
chunky peanut butter, too.
Well, I went to a dinner and what did they eat,
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
I took a big bite and it stuck to my teeth,
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
Now everybody look like they got the mumps
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
Eatin' peanut butter in-a great big hunks
(Peanut, Peanut Butter)
I like peanut butter,
creamy peanut butter,
chunky peanut butter, too.
I like peanut butter,
creamy peanut butter,
chunky peanut butter, too.
