After their initial success, the Box Tops underwent some serious personnel changes. Their original drummer and keyboardist went back to college to avoid the draft. This single didn’t do nearly as well as “Cry Like A Baby” and they soon changed producers. After a few more Top 40 entries, the group broke up in 1970.

The U.S. military used to routinely draft young rock-and-rollers back then
...they wouldn't dare do that nowadays. Rock-and-rollers have become way too "important".
Just goes to show what low esteem society held rock n'roll in at the time compared to how both idolizing and taking-for-granted it is toward them in this current day and age.
