My commercial 45, confirmed as Laurie 3366, has a listed time of (2:43) and an actual time of (2:44). My 45 is styrene, with machine-stamped deadwax of "LR-3366A-1B". I only post this because the many current database CDs that include this song have actual run times ranging from (2:37) to (2:46). As a side note, while the label was in negotiations with the Charles Schulz/comic strip "legal eagles" (for clearance to use the Snoopy/Red Baron characters,) Laurie Records of Canada released an alternate-lyric version of the song (which hit the Top 10 in some markets), titled "Squeaky Vs. The Black Knight", which goes for good $$ these days on the collectors' market.

Earlier this year I was outbid on that Canadian copy on ebay -- a VG copy, at that (and my high bid at the time was an astounding $52 -- i don't recall what it went for above that).

Some copies of this were issued on different label stock...my copy is the standard Laurie label, but a copy bought by a high school friend during the song's chart run has a light blue label. I've never seen another Laurie 45 with this label...my only guess is that the pressing plant ran out & put out some singles on generic label stock until supplies were replenished.
