Last night a radio DJ said that Donovan did it first, this morning another DJ gave credit to Buffy Saint-Marie; which is true? Also, anyone have the lyrics and chords? Thanks,         dex

One of my hobby horses is the way songs are attributed to the singer rather than the writer.Donovan had the bigger hit this side of the pond,but it was definatley Buffeys song.Its like people talk about Black is the Colour as a Christie Moore song,when he is on record (live concert) saying it is traditional and he got it from Alex Atterson.
