The song was written by Milton Drake, Al Hoffman and Jerry Livingston. Al Trace wrote and collaborated on several popular songs of the 40's and 50's including, "If I Knew You Were Coming I'd've Baked a Cake" and "Brush Those Tears From Your Eyes". Al Trace also wrote under the pseudonym Clem Watts. Younger brother of Ben Trace.
