Karaoke Track: Garden Party by Ricky Nelson (Pocket Songs) - Karaoke Nerds

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.

But it's all right now
I learned my lesson well

You see you can't please everyone
So you got to please yourself.

People came from miles around
Everyone was there

Yoko broughtherwalrus
There was magic in the air

And over in the corner
Much to my surprise

Mr. Hughes in Dylan's shoes

Wearin' his disguise.

But it's all right now
I learned my lesson well

You see you can't please everyone
So you got to please yourself.

La-da-da-da, La-da-da-da.

Played them all the old songs
Thought thafs why they came

But no one heard the music
We didn't look the same

I said Hello to Mary Lou
She belongs to me

And I sang songs
About a honky tonk
And it was time to leave.

But it's all right now
I learned my lesson well

You see you can't please everyone
So you got to please yourself.

La-da-da-da, La-da-da-da.

Someone opened up
The closet door

And out stepped Johnny B. Goode
Playin' guitar like a-ringin' a bell
And lookin' like he should

If you gotta play at garden parties
lwish you a lotta luck

But if memories were all I sang
I'd rather drive a truck.

But it's all right now
I learned my lesson well

You see you can't please everyone
So you got to please yourself.

La-da-da-da, La-da-da-da.

And ifs all right now
I learned my lesson well
You know you
Can't please everyone

So you got to please yourself.
