Default Who is who [logical reasoning problem]

Messrs Baker, Cooper, Parson, and Smith are a baker, a cooper, a parson, and a smith. However, no one has the same name as his vocation.
The cooper is not the namesake of Mr Smith's vocation;
the baker is neither Mr Parson nor is he the namesake of Mr Baker's vocation.
What is Mr Baker's vocation?

I know the answer but don't have enough logic to solve.
