Artist/Band: Lynn Anderson
Lyrics for Song: Where's the Playground Bobby
Lyrics for Album: Here's Lynn Anderson [Capitol] [1972]



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 don't stay around

If I don't stay around...


Where's the Playground Bobby

Lynn Anderson's 'Where's the Playground Bobby' stands as a standout track from her 1972 album 'Here's Lynn Anderson.' The song exemplifies Anderson's signature blend of country and pop, characterized by her distinctive vocal delivery and melodic sensibilities. Released during a period where she was navigating the intersection of traditional country roots and mainstream pop appeal, the recording reflects the musical landscape of early 1970s country music. While the specific narrative of the song remains open to interpretation, it serves as a testament to Anderson's ability to craft accessible, emotionally resonant material that resonated with audiences of the era. The track remains a notable song in her discography, showcasing her versatility as a performer who could deliver both upbeat and reflective country songs with equal conviction.
