Isn't John Fogerty Willy, and the Poor Boys are the other three CCR members?

Hello !
I think Fogerty sings in one other song about Willy, this is "Centerfield" from he's one-named 1985 album.
Still I wonder who's Willy

Bingo. There's your answer. John is "Willy" & "The Poor Boys" are Doug, Stu & Tom.
