Something Like That

It was labor day weekend I was seventeen

I bought a coke and some gasoline

And I drove out to the county fair

When I saw her for the first time

She was standing there in the ticket line

And it all started right then and there

Oh a sailers sky made a perfect sunset

And thats the day Ill never forget

I had a barbeque stain on my white tee shirt

She was killing me in that miniskirt

Skippin rocks on the river by the railroad tracks

She had a suntan line and red lipstick

I worked so hard for that first kiss

And a heart dont forget something like that

Well it was five years later on a southbound plane

I was headed down to new orleans

To meet some friends of mine for mardi gras

When I heard a voice from the past

Comin from a few rows back

And when I looked I couldnt believe just what I saw

She said I bet you dont remember me

And I said only every other memory

I had a barbeque stain on my white tee shirt

You were killing me in that miniskirt

Skippin rocks on the river by the railroad tracks

You had a suntan line and red lipstick

I worked so hard for that first kiss

And a heart dont forget something like that

Like an old photograph

Time can make a feeling fade

But the memory of a first love

Never fades away

I had a barbecue stain on my white tee shirt

She was killing me in that miniskirt

Skippin rocks on the river by the railroad tracks

She had a sun tan line and red lipstick

I worked so hard for that first kiss

A heart dont forget no a heart dont forget

I said a heart dont forget something like that

Oh not something like that
