this has always been credited to John Carter and Tim Gilbert, but according to the SAC article in _Goldmine_ #359 John Carter wrote lyrics to SAC (and future Lynyrd Skynyrd) guitarist Ed King's instrumental track, 'The Happy Whistler'; Tim Gilbert had written other songs with John Carter before (most notably the Rainy Daze 'That Acapulco Gold', which hit #70 nationwide before program directors found out what 'Acapulco Gold' was) and was apparently co-credited by mistake.
