Kristofferson was a bit embarrassed with this co-credit while he just shared the same room while Marijohn wrote it. Maybe helping out with one or two lines but that's it.
Covers:
Kris Kristofferson [coauthor]
Marijohn Wilkin [author backed by her son John Buck Wilkin, who wrote GTO (see there)]
Lena Martell [n°1 UK]

Became a n°1 in seven different countries for seven different performers. More than 500 versions worldwide. Dolly Parton & Porter Wagoner's One Day At A Time (1970 RCA) was written by Joe Babcock and Don Gibson's ('74) by Gary Paxton. And then there's also Willie Nelson's (see there).
