This title is a cover of Garden Party as made famous by Ricky Nelson

I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
And the 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 ya' got to please yourself
People came from miles around everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus there was magic in the air
And over in the corner much to my surprise
Mister Hughes hittin'
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 ya' got to please yourself
Lah dah dah dah dah lah dah dah dah dah
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 but it's all right now
I learned my lesson well
You see you can't please everyone so ya' got to please yourself
Lah dah dah dah dah lah dah dah dah dah
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 ya' gotta play at garden parties
I wish you a lotta luck
But if memories are all I'd sing
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 ya' got to please yourself lah dah dah dah dah lah dah dah dah dah
And it's all right now yeah, I learned my lesson well
You see you can't please everyone
So ya' got to please yourself
