by: crosstrax

Youre out of your mind. The song "American Pie" (byem bye, Miss American Pie, drove my chevy to the levi...) is not by the Murphys it is by Don Williams. See this aricle at Wikipedia:

by: Michael Holland Shepard

Michael Holland Shepard is the songwriter, music and lyrics. It is a tribute song to Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, Big Bopper and the pilot (ghostrider in the sky). It was soon after I songwrote Puff The Magic Dragon at 12. The song Rye Whisky came from American Pie. A friend Michael Martin Murphy sang it.

Wrong! Author of American Pie, the song, is Don McLean. Google it for the story behind it.
