Long Over ? Garden Party Lyrics
» Ricky Nelson

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

[chorus]
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
You see, ya 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
'n' over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise

[chorus]

lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah

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

[chorus]

lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah

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

[chorus]

lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah

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

He will talk about how he disgraced and tore America down to deliver America to his Arab oil friends, the Saudis.

You okay man??? lol...I would guess basbeball and fishing and his ranch???

he'd talk about when he fell off the segue

I think Busch will ask Ben Laudin to pass him the crack pipe and his copy of My Pretty Puppy...the book he continued to read to school children when informed about 911

Girly-men have "garden parties". Real men throw BBQs. The conversation at Crawford will be about cattle, fences, brush clearing, and how well President Thompson is doing in his second term. Someone will mention they saw an ad for Hillary Clinton, a partner in the Rose Law Firm, painted on a bus stop bench in Little Rock. "Injured on the job or in a car wreck? Call me right away! Day or Night!"

I think he would be talking about the ending to My Pet Goat.

Edit: I guess people have no sense of humor what so ever.
