Claude François recorded the song in French as 'La vie d'un homme' (lit. 'A man's life'). Notably, this is thanks to Cat Stevens having sung it, as Claude François also adapted 'Wild World' (in 1971 as 'Fleur Sauvage'; lit. 'Wild Flower'), thus having a former business relation with Cat Stevens as well as an ear out for his musical hits.[citation needed]
Australian James Blundell covered the song on his 1989 self titled album.
In 1993, Jimmy Buffett recorded the song. His version peaked at No. 74 on the BillboardHot Country Singles & Tracks chart.[18]
Sam & Dave recorded at least one version that appears on albums released after their formative years such as the I Thank You compilation released in 2002 by the Brentwood Records label.[19]
Swedish crooner Andreas Weise released a big band version of the song in May 2012.
