 Rate Garden Party
Artist : Nelson
Song : Garden party
I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old
friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs
again
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my
name
No one recognized me, I didn`t look the same
CHORUS
But it`s all right now, I learned my lesson well.
You see, ya can`t please everyone, so ya got to
please yourself
People came from miles around, everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the
air
`n` over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan`s shoes wearing his
disguise
CHORUS
lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Played them all the old songs, thought that`s why
they came
No one heard the music, we didn`t look the same
I said hello to "Mary Lou", she belongs
to me
When I sang a song about a honky-tonk, it was
time to leave
CHORUS
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped
Johnny B. Goode
Playing guitar like a-ringin` a bell and lookin`
like he should
If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a
lotta luck
But if memories were all I sang, I rather drive a
truck
CHORUS
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
`n` it`s all right now, learned my lesson well
You see, ya can`t please everyone, so you got to
please yourself
