I got the LP at the library "dollar a bag" sale and could probably put my hands on it right now if I had to. The all instrumental version is quite different, but man is it a blast to play. It was a standard in both high school and college big band (I played tenor sax in the first, bari in the second). I can still just rip it off by rote.
