I know it from the George Benson version.

Also in reference to a thread I started asking about the structure of Pink Floyd's The Nile Song the chord change used is apparently called the truck drivers gear change somewhat sarcastically as it is kind of takes the song up a gear. On Broadway does it about four times if I'm not mistaken. At least the George Benson version does.

Another edit: it does gear change in the original Drifters song. It's 3 times not 4 though.
