Playground In My Mind:Clint Holmes. #2 on BB Hot 100 on EPIC Records in 1973. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba..ba-ba-ba-ba-ba..ba-ba-ba-ba-ba- ba-ba-ba-ba. Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba..ba-ba-ba-ba-ba..ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba. #1. When this old world gets me down.......and there's no love to be found. I close my eyes and soon I find, I'm in a playground in my mind. Where the children laugh, and the children play and we sing a song all day. My name is Michael, I got a nickel..I got a nickel, shiny and new. I'm gonna buy me all kinds of candy..that's what I'm gonna do. #2. Oh, the wonders that I find......in the playground in my mind. In a world that used to be..close your eyes and follow me. Where the children laugh, and the children play and we sing a song all day. My girl is Cindy, when we get married, we're gonna have a baby or two. We're gonna let them visit their grandma..that's what we're gonna do. INTERLUDE: (x2) My name is Michael, I got a nickel..I got a nickel, shiny and new. I'm gonna buy me all kinds of candy..that's what I'm gonna do. #3. (See the little children..living in a world that I left behind. Happy little children in the playround in my mind. See the little children....see how they're playing so happy in the playround in my mind.) La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la..la-la-la. la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la..(Fade.) A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
