“The Unicorn” was written by Shel Silverstein, a famous children’s author. His nephew Mitch Myers, who wrote the book ‘Silverstein Around the World’, says: “What seems to be a timeless Irish folk song was written by a Jewish guy from Chicago.” The song was made very popular by The Irish Rovers in 1968, selling 8 million copies worldwide. Silverstein also wrote “The Cover of the Rolling Stone” and “A Boy Named Sue”.
