The first time I heard this song was on an album called "New Day" by Theodore Bikel. It's a very strange album, with covers of "Lady Jane" by the Stones and "Piggies", by the Beatles (the standout) and lots of Richard Perry's syrupy strings poured on top. And along with the songs are interspersed versus of poetry, to boot. But Bikel's amazing voice makes it worth while.
