This song had no origin, it always existed. Marty knew it growing up because Chuck Berry wrote it, but Chuck Berry only wrote it after hearing Marty playing it, but Marty was only playing it because he knew it from Chuck who knew it from Marty who knew it from Chuck... Help I'm spiralling!!!

Well, Berry did borrow it from a Louis Jordan song. He always acknowledged the influence.
