That song appeared on her album, “Mrs. Miller’s Greatest Hits.” And that album sold 250,000 copies three weeks after its release in 1966. it was a smash hit...it made it to the Billboard Hot 100 list as well (peaking at #82). As bad as Mrs. Miller is, she had lots of fans. Elva Miller was born in 1907 and, by the mid-1960s, was a housewife who, on occasion, recorded herself singing. She’d sell these self-made albums to raise money for a local orphanage — it’s unlikely she ever expected to get a record deal, let alone cut a record that sold a quarter-million copies. Before 1967 was out, Miller appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show (on the same episode as, coincidentally, Nancy Sinatra), performed for soldiers in Vietnam alongside Bob Hope, and appeared on a TV variety show in duet with Jimmy Durante,

In an interview with the Kenyon Review, Notley noted: _I think I try with my poems to create a beginning space. I always seem to be erasing and starting over, rather than picking up where I left off, even if I wind up taking up the same themes. This is probably one reason that I change form and style so much, out of a desire to find a new beginning, which is always the true beginning. - poetryfoundation.org
