Garden Party (Live)

Garden Party (Live) - Johnny Hansen

Written by：Alan Jackson

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 everyone so you gotta please yourself

People came from miles around and 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

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

You see you can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself

I played them all the old songs I thought that's 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 when I sang a song about a Honky Tonk 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 gotta please yourself

Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Johnny B Good

Playing guitar like ringing a bell and looking like he should

If you gotta play at garden parties I wish you a lot of 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 gotta please yourself

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

You see you can't please everyone so you gotta please yourself
