Country Party
Recorded by Johnny Lee
Written by Ricky Nelson

C                   F         C                 F
I went to a country party reminisce with my old friends
C                                 F       G7    C
Chance to share some memories and play my songs again
                          F     C                F
When I got to the country party they all knew my name
   C        Am       G7                C
No one recognized me I didn't look the same

         F   G7    C        F          G7     C
But it's all right now I've learned my lesson well
    F                C               F      G7         C
See you can't please everyone so you got to please yourself

                 F            C            F
People came from miles around everyone was there
C                      F               G7    C
Conway brought Loretta Haggard brought Bobby Bare
            F      C             F
Over in the corner much to my surprise
        C                 Am            G7                   C
There's Waylon Willie and Mickey Gilley listenin' to Charley Pride

Repeat #2

                      F         C                       F
I played them all the old songs thought that's why they came
   C                   F         G7        C
No one heard the music it didn't sound the same
              F             C               F
Said hello to Ramblin' Rose she belonged to me
C                   Am         G7                 C
Sang a song about a honky tonk and it was time to leave

Repeat #2

                      F               C                  F
Someone opened up the closet door and out stepped Johnny Cash
C                                      F                G7     C
Playin' his guitar like a Ring Of Fire June was singin' in the back (Jackson)
                            F       C                F
If you gotta play a country party I wish you a lotta luck
       C           Am       C         G7                 C
But if memories of all I've sang well I'd rather drive a truck

Repeat #2
