I went to see a Tom Paxton show a few weeks ago and he was telling us a story about when his daughter was going to university in Scotland....she and her friends were at the pub one evening and a Scottish performer was there on the stage singing "Last Thing On My Mind"....She goes up to him and thanks him for playing it, saying, "My dad wrote that song."

The performer says, "No he didn't, it is an old Scottish folk song."

"Yes he did", she responds.

The musician leans back and thinks for a moment and asks, "What is your dad's name?"

"Tom Paxton", she says.

""Hmmm, he may have written it."
