I'm not certain, but I believe this song was written by another songwriter, or perhaps co-written. I could be wrong. Lightfoot's lyrics are so "real", and he seems to write songs effortlessly. And his words hit the heart on every song, unlike so many other songwriters.
@terrafirma91 shel silverstein wrote the lirics - Vince Matthews probably the melody - sometimes those "lightfoot" songs will sneak up on you . . . talent runs in packs it seems.
