"Somethin' Like That

"Somethin' Like That Lyrics

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 standin' there in the ticket line;
And it all started right then and there.

Oh the sailor sky made a perfect sunset,
And that's a day I'll never forget!

I had a barbeque stain on my white T-shirt,
She was killin' me in that mini-skirt;
Skipping 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;
And a heart don't forget something like that.

Well, it was five years later on a south-bound plane,
I was headed down to New Orleans;
To meet some friends of mine for the Mardi Gras.

When I heard a voice from the past,
Comin' from a few rows back;
And when I looked,
I couldn't believe just what I saw.

She said, "I bet ya don't remember me."
And I said, "Only every other memory!"

I had a barbeque stain on my white T-shirt,
You were killin' me in that mini-skirt;
Skipping rocks on the river by the railroad tracks.
You had a sun-tan line and red lipstick,
I worked so hard for that first kiss;
And a heart don't forget something like that."

Like an old photograph,
Time can make a feeling fade;
But the mem'ry of the first love,
Never fades away!

I had a barbeque stain on my white T-shirt,
She was killin' me in that mini-skirt;
Skipping 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;
And a heart don't forget,
No!
A heart don't forget,
I said!
A heart don't forget,
Somethin' like that!
Oh, now somethin' like that!
