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 a sailor's sky made a perfect sunset
and that's the day I will never forget
I had a barbecue stain on my white t-shirt
she was killin' me in that miniskirt
skippin' rocks on the river by the railroad track
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
Well it was five years later on a southbound plane
I was headed south to New Orleans
to meet some friends of mine for the Mardi Gras
that's when I heard a voice from the past
coming 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 barbecue stain on my white t-shirt
you were killin' me in that miniskirt
skippin' rocks on the river by the railroad track
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 t-shirt
she was killin' me in that miniskirt
skippin' rocks on the river by the railroad track
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
ooh not somthing like that
