This time, my gut feeling says d. Harry Chapin, but I haven't heard this line before that I can remember...

I'm not an expert on obscure Beatles lyrics, so I bet that it's quoted from one of their tunes.

Thanks! This title is unknown to me, though. So is most of James Taylor's repertoire, but I have the better part of Jim Croce's original albums and compilations, so I'd probably recognised it if it had been taken from one of his tunes.
