First Beer

It was 21-something But I don't really remember the score I called the final state that year Don't think about it much anymore My buddy's telephone number Ended in something like 485 We lost touch after high school But I don't really remember why As the years go by And memories fade There's a night in July That always stays 'Cause I remember my first beer It was a bittersweet taste But I had a straight face I raised it up and I said cheers Like a scene in the movies Doing something to me My memory is crystal-clear They went down pretty smooth But if you wanna know the truth Yeah, I remember my first beer 'Cause I drank it, yeah, I drank it I drank it with you Just a blanket in a patch of grass Underneath the southern sky Your lips were on the bottle But I was wishing that they were all mine Wasn't my first kiss It was my first buzz Was I getting drunk Or just drunk in love? 'Cause I remember my first beer It was a bittersweet taste But I had a straight face I raised it up and I said cheers Like a scene in the movies Doing something to me My memory is crystal-clear They went down pretty smooth But if you wanna know the truth Yeah, I remember my first beer 'Cause I drank it, yeah, I drank it Yeah, I drank it with you Yeah, I drank it with you Yeah, I drank it with As the years go by (years go by) And the memories fade There's a night in July That always stays 'Cause I remember my first beer It was a bittersweet taste But I had a straight face I raised it up and I said cheers Like a scene in the movies Doing something to me My memory is crystal-clear They went down pretty smooth But if you wanna know the truth I remember my first beer 'Cause I drank it, yeah, I drank it Yeah, I drank it with you I drank it with you Yeah, I drank it with you You
