“One’s on the Way” is one of the many country hits penned by famed musician, poet and raconteur Shel Silverstein. While he is perhaps most famous today for his books of silly children’s poetry such as A Light in the Attic and Falling Up, Silverstein’s songs have been recorded by such country luminaries as Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Emmylou Harris, John Prine, Waylon Jennings and even Blake Shelton.

Loretta Lynn also recorded Silverstein’s “Hey, Loretta”, although she supposedly didn’t like it.
