Canadian progressive rock trio Rush's 1977 album "A Farewell to Kings ". The song was written byGeddy Lee andAlex Lifeson , with the lyrics written entirely by Lee. This song is loosely based on the movie calledMr. Deeds Goes to Town , starringGary Cooper as a man from a small town who inherits money and moves to the big city. It has also been reported to be loosely based on the comicMandrake the Magician . It is notable as one of the few Rush songs for whichNeil Peart did not write the lyrics since his entry into the band.
