《 Tim McGraw - Something Like That 》

《 Tim McGraw - 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

And 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 sailor's sky made a perfect sunset

And that's a day I'll never forget

I had a barbecue stain on my white t-shirt

She was killing me in that mini-skirt

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 don't forget something like that

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

Coming from a few rows back

When I looked I couldn't believe just what I saw

She said I bet you don't remember me

And I said only every other memory

I had a barbecue stain on my white t-shirt

You were killing me in that mini-skirt

Skippin' 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

A heart don't forget something like that

Like an old photograph

Time can make a feeling fade

But the memory of the first love

Never fades away

I had a barbecue stain on my white t-shirt

She was killing me in that mini-skirt

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 don't forget, no a heart don't forget

I said a heart don't forget something like that

Oh, not something like that
