I heard Nicky did this song live but who did the original?

I'm sure that's wrong.

The one Nicky Wire covered at Hay, and so I assume the session, isn't by Bo Diddley, it's by Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers, although at the time I think they were just called the Modern Lovers. The Sex Pistols covered it, they're different songs.
