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 sailor's sky made a perfect sunset,
And that's a day I'll never forget.
I had a barbeque stain on my white tee-shirt,
And she was killin' 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 don't forget, something like that.
It was five years later, on a southbound plane.
I was headin' 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 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 barbeque stain on my white tee-shirt,
And you were killin' 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 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 tee shirt
She was killin' 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 don't forget, no a heart don't forget
I said a heart don't forget something like that
Oh, not something like that
It was Labour 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 sailor's sky made a perfect sunset, And that's a day I'll never forget. I had a barbeque stain on my white tee-shirt, And she was killin' 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 don't forget, something like that. It was five years later, on a southbound plane.

You had a suntan 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...
