"Handy Man" is a song written by singer #JimmyJones and songwriter #OtisBlackwell. Recordings by #DelShannon and also The Sparks Of Rhythm list Charles Merenstein as a co-writer, as does #BMI. The Sparks Of Rhythm version on the Apollo 541 single version released in 1959 credits Andrew Barksdale and Merenstein as writers omitting Jimmy Jones. The song is noted for Jones singing "Come-a, come-a come-a come-a, come come-a, yeah" lyrics.
