Nelson - Garden Party Lyrics
I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friendsA chance to share old memories and play our songs againWhen I got to the garden party, they all knew my nameNo one recognized me, I didnt look the sameChorusBut its all right now, I learned my lesson well.You see, ya cant please everyone, so ya got to please yourselfPeople came from miles around, everyone was thereYoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the airn over in the corner, much to my surpriseMr. hughes hid in dylans shoes wearing his disguiseChorusLott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dahPlayed them all the old songs, thought thats why they cameNo one heard the music, we didnt look the sameI said hello to mary lou, she belongs to meWhen I sang a song about a honky-tonk, it was time to leaveChorusLot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)Lot-in-dah-dah-dahSomeone opened up a closet door and out stepped johnny b. goodePlaying guitar like a-ringin a bell and lookin like he shouldIf you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lotta luckBut if memories were all I sang, I rather drive a truckChorusLot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)Lot-in-dah-dah-dahn its all right now, learned my lesson wellYou see, ya cant please everyone, so you got to please yourselfTranscribed by robin hood
