Writer, Doris Akers, born in Brookfield, Missouri, on May 21, 1923, was one of ten children. She learned to play the piano by ear at age six and by age ten had composed her first song.
This song was written in 1982 by gospel singer/songwriter Randy Stonehill and appeared on his 1983 album "Equator". It is an interesting, fun song, sung in a lilting, calypso style.
