What country song inspired Cat's in the Cradle?

On https://www.harrychapin.com/circle/winter04/behind.htm, Sandy talks about a country song that was one of the inspirations for Cat's in the Cradle. Does anyone know what song that was?

Albums that you listened to and that were somehow not only "fascinating" but also completely "new".

The album I can remember I had this strong feeling was "Abbey Road" by Beatles. This killed me though I knew "Sgt. Pepper" before, and maybe Pepper had the better songs. But there was something I cannot explain. Later I made a similair experience only with "Supertramp".

Heart singing “Magic Man” live on The Midnight Special in 1977…Ann Wilson’s dramatic soprano voice is spectacular and I love this song as she uses her lower ranges too…Ann’s dramatic soprano delivered with occasional conversational lines make this song absolutely badass..the whole band is glorious
