Hello. Nope, not a camp song. I wrote it in the late 60s for friends, Bud and Travis, a popular folk act at that time. They recorded it, as did Harry Belafonte and many others. I remember the night I wrote it. It was the first song of mine that was ever recorded. My name back then was Vicki Arnold. A few years later I legally changed it to Morgan Ames and have written under that name ever since.
