I was talking the other day with some of my friends, and the topic of Tim McGraw and all of his hits came up. We discussed which were our favorite Tim McGraw songs. I like quite a few, but it came down to “Do You Want Fries With That” and the one I chose for today’s song lyrics.

I think I like it the most because it’s a catchy, upbeat tune that we can all relate to and sing along with. Enjoy!

Something Like That by Tim McGraw

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 sailer’s sky made a perfect sunset
And that’s the day I’ll 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 don’t 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 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
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 don’t 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 don’t forget, no a heart don’t forget
I said a heart don’t forget something like that
Oh, not something like that

The summer tour information is coming out finally and one of the biggest names in country music has announced his summer tour dates. The superstar country music artist is none other than Tim McGraw. He will be touring for a couple of months summer all across the country with opening acts such as Jason Aldean and Halfway to Hazard. He will also share the stage with some new artists signed to the label he co-owns. These acts will include Lance Miller and Catherine Raney.

If you hit up a Tim McGraw show, you can also register to vote at the time, as he has partnered with Rock the Vote. Also, if you just happen to get passes to a special VIP session prior to the concert, you will be treated to barbecue sponsored by KC Masterpiece and Kingsford charcoal while Tim himself plays a private acoustic set at the party.

The “Live Your Voice” tour will begin on May 9th in Tampa, Florida, and will end July 6th in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. There is no word if Tim’s wife, Faith Hill, will make any appearances during the tour. The rest of the tour dates have not been confirmed as of yet, but I will update you as soon as they are all confirmed. There are other sites out there with lists of dates, but all of them are different at this point and there has been no official list released as of yet. Hopefully it won’t be too long, so check back here soon or keep your eye on Tim McGraw’s official website for the correct list of dates.
