New Lyrics:
My Pardon Party
I went to a garden party to
reminisce with my old friends
I Was At My Garden Party, Where They Planted Me In The Earth

A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
A Chance To Fertilize The Ground And Sing Of The New Birth.

When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name
While At My Pardon Party, My Songs Were Way Too Plain

No one recognized me, I didn't look the same
'No One Recogniz-ed Me, I Didn't Look The Same.'

CHORUS
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
'But It's All Right Now, I've Rhymed My Lessons Well.'
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
'Can't Please Everyone', So You Gots To Please The Son.

People came from miles around, everyone was there
People Logged On To Facebook, 'Liking' My Demise.

Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the air
Yoko Sent A Virus, It Was Tragic, Very Few Survived.

'n' over in the corner, much to my surprise
'N' Over In The Corner' Not Any Surprise
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise
Religious Jews Hid In Satan's Shoes, Wearing A Disguise.

But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
'But It's All Right Now, I've Rhymed My Lessons Well.'
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
'Can't Please Everyone', So You Gots To Please The Son.

CHORUS
lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Lots Of Fa, La, Las, But Very Few Are True.
Guitar Rendition:
Played them all the old songs, thought that's
why they came
But All Of My Song Rewrites, Are True, Yes Every Word.

No one heard the music, we didn't look the same
All There Felt The Music, Only Few Truly Heard.
I said hello to "Mary Lou", she belongs to me
I Said I Love You Cynthia, Will See You In The Sky.

When I sang a song about a honky-tonk, it was time to leave
We Sure Had The Gall, Then Gave An Altar Call,
Time To Say Good Bye .

But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
'But It's All Right Now, I've Rhymed My Lessons Well.'
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
'Can't Please Everyone', So You Gots To Please The Son.

CHORUS
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
Lots Of Fa, La, La's
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Very Few Are True.
Guitar:
Someone opened up a closet door
and out stepped Johnny B. Goode
Someone Came Out Of The Closet, And Out Stepped Johnny B. Gay.

Playing guitar like a-ringin' a bell and lookin' like he should
Pulling The Twine, Like One With No Time, And Shakin Like A Stray.

If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lotta luck
When You're At Your Garden Party, I Wish You God Speed
But if memories were all I sang, I rather drive a truck
But Glad I Have A Place In The Air, Else Might As Well Smoke Weed.
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
'But It's All Right Now, I've Rhymed My Lessons Well.'
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
'Can't Please Everyone', So You Gots To Please The Son.

CHORUS
lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
Lot's Of Fa, La, La's
lot-in-dah-dah-dah
Not Much Of That Is True.
Guitar Rendition:
'n' it's all right now, learned my lesson well
All My Songs Are True, I've Rhymed My Lessons Well.
You see, ya can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
You See, Ya Can't Please EveryOne, So You Gots To Please The SON.
