I don't usually expect to stump this crowd on music.
A bit of a trick question probably. You won't hear those words on the radio version.

Looks like it could be a Hendrix tune. Is it some extended version of Hey Joe?

Clue #4. Those words are spoken right at the beginning of the song before a note is played.
Clue #5. You've all heard the song 100s of times but I suspect unless you own the album/track you may not have heard those words.

Your last one. I wouldn't have gotten it without that. Never heard the album version, but the over and over struck a chord. So to speak.
Ok, I'll think on one.

You watch it stroh. That carefully constructed illiterate man in a bottle persona is gonna take a hit if you keep on usin' yer smarts like that. ;)
When I was looking for clues for that one I found the answer wasn't readily available on-line. I have defeated Google. I am Uisce the Magnificent.

I'm stunned that anybody would actually own a Tommy James and the Shondells album.

Technically I don't. iTunes track. But I would. I like them.
Why do you hate sweet cherry wine?

Like Sweet Cherry Wine not so much, but The Hanky Panky very much!
A quick Wiki shows that Tommy James was no one hit wonder, either.
Turned down an offer to play Woodstock!
