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 |
|
But 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 ev'ryone so |
|
You got to please yourself |
|
People came for miles around everyone was there |
|
Yoko brought her walrus there was magic in the air |
|
And over in the corner much to my surprise |
|
Mr. Hughes hid in dylan's shoes wearing his disguise |
|
I played them all the old songs I 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 ring an' a bell and lookin' like he should |
|
If you gotta play at garden parties I wish you a lot a' luck |
|
But if memories were all I sang I'd rather drive a truck |
