Something Like That
(track 9 - time 3:03)
(rick ferrell/keith follese)
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
