That was one of DAC's better songs. Written by Steve Goodman (you may remember him as the Author of "City of New Orleans") and DAC. Great Song DUDE!

Hey, and I always thought for some reason the "City Of New Orleans" was a Arlo Guthrie song...Don't know why...good info though ....Thanks Rex

Steve Goodman was one of those Great Songwriters who never got the popular recognition he deserved. He was modestly successful and friend to many great recording artists. Sadly Leukemia took him in 1984. Do a wiki search and there is a short bio there. A good story on how City of New Orleans was recorded.
