Where's the Playground Bobbie?
Lynn Anderson · At Home with Lynn [Chart] [1969]
(Jim Webb)
The end has come and found us here
With our toys scattered all around us here
The puzzle that we couldn't find an answer for
Still asks us, darling, just what all the games were for
And here we stand in a box of sands.
Where's the playground Bobby
You're the one who's supposed to know his way around
Where's the playground Bobby
If I don't stay around, if I don't stay around.
--- Instrumental ---
The carousel has stopped us here
It twirled a time or two and then it dropped us here
And still you're not content with something about me
But what merry-go-round could you ride without me
To take your hand, oh, how would you stand?
Where's the playground Bobby
If I decide to let you go and play around
Where's the playground Bobby
If I don't stay around, if I don't stay around.
Where's the playground Bobby
If I decide to let you go and play around
Where's the playground Bobby
If I don't stay around, if I don't stay around...
