See, Joe, that's the trouble with you young folks today. Your collection of Sing Out! doesn't go back far enough! We have that issue but all it says is:

This song, by Philadelphia songwriter/singer Karl Williams, has already become something of a classic. You can hear Karl sing it on hie debut album Living At The End Of Time (GS-1949, Greene St. Records, P.O. box 29531, Philadelphia, PA 19144).
