Holly Park - Emitt Rhodes

Thinking back a long long ways

A song we used to sing yesterday

The time is right to lift your eyes

How can you go wrong singing a song from yesterday?

I used to lay beneath the shady tree in Holly Park

Laying on the grass and lay my head back on the bark

And float away, we’re sipping soda, watch the day go by

And dreamed I

I used to swing upon the swings at Holly Park

I used to quietly sing until it was dark and then go home

We’re all alone and watch the TV screen

Read a magazine

Oh, Holly Park is so beautiful with the flowers in bloom

Holly Park is so beautiful when the children play at noon

Holly Park is so beautiful any time of the year

In the good old summertime the fireflies would light up the night

When the winter came around you’d always find me by fireside

In the good old summertime the fireflies would light up the night

When the winter came around you’d always find me by fireside

I used to listen to the birds as they (whistle)

I used to remember what I’d heard and I’d (whistle) back at them

Well, time and time again they’d fly away

What did I say?

Oh, Holly Park is so beautiful with the flowers in bloom

Holly Park is so beautiful when the children play at noon

Holly Park is so beautiful any time of the year

Always dear to my, always dear to my, always dear to my.
