Most people remember it as officially 'The Knuckle Song for Piano'.
If you ask a serious pianist about this, he'll just think you're talking about a Prokofiev sonata where the pianist smacks the keys hard with the left fist at a particularly dramatic part of the piece.
One person from another forum "dumdumdiddle" wrote out the notes:
F# G# A# (roll these), then play C# C#
F# G# A# (roll these), then play C# C#
F# G# A# (roll) C# D# C# A#
A# G# F# (roll the other way), then D# D#
A# G# F# D# D#
C# D D# F F# F# F#
The Mad Music Archive shows that "Barry and the Bookbinders" have a copyright on the Knuckle Song.

...but the copyright is dated 1997 and we all know the song is older.
Mike Fun stated from The Straight Dope:
I always thought it was called "I'm going to slam the lid down on your g*****n hands if you keep playing that" in F# pentatonic.
So I didn't find out who wrote it or when exactly it was written, but I do hope you find the video entertaining.
Enjoy!

it's about a hot dog stand owner and a woman in love...
I know a weenie man,
He owns a weenie stand.
He se-ells everything
From hot dogs on down.
Someday I'll share his life
I'll be his weenie wife
Hot Dog! I love that weenie man (O, Yes I do!)
then the knuckle rap part doesn't have words.
could just be someone made up those lyrics to be silly.
a long long time ago in a land far far away i heard this...
