What is this song? “My name is Michael, I’ve got a nickel, I’ve got a nickel shiny and new…?

Does anyone recognize the song that begins with the lyrics, “My name is Michael, I’ve got a nickel, I’ve got a nickel shiny and new…?” The next line goes, “I'm gonna buy me all kinds of candy, that's what I'm gonna do!” I would love to know the name of the song and the artist behind it. Thank you!

Song: Playground In My Mind

Artist: Clint Holmes

Words and Music by Paul Vance and Lee Pockriss

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've got a nickel, I've got a nickel shiny and new

I'm gonna buy me all kinds of candy, that's what I'm gonna do

In 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'll 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

Living in a world that I left behind

Happy little children

In the playground in my mind

See the little children

See how they play in the playground in my mind

La la la----------FADE
