Garden Party - Rick Nelson

Garden Party
Words and Music by Rick Nelson

I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again

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

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

'n' it's all right now, learned my lesson well
You see, ya can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
