The Good Stuff

The Good Stuff Lyrics

Well me and my lady had our first big fightso Idrove around till I saw the neon light at a corner bar just seemed right so I pulled upnot a soul around but the old bar keep down at the end and looking half asleepbut he walked up and said what'l it be I said the good stuffhe didnt reach around for the whiskey he didnt pour me a beerhis blue eyes kinda went misty he said you cant find that hereIt's the first long kiss on the second dateand mama's all worried when you get home lateand dropin' the ring in the spagetti plate cuz your hands are shakin' so muchand its the way that she looks with her eye's and her haireatin' burnt suppers the whole first year and askin for seconds to keep her from tearin' upyeah man thats the good stuffHe grabbed a carton a milk and he poured a glassI smiled and said ill have some a thatwe sat there and talked as an hour passed like old friendsaw a black and white picture and it caught my stareit was a pretty girl blue fond hairhe said thats my bonnie taken bout a year after we wedHe said I spent five years in the bottle when the cancer took her from me I've been sober three years now and the one thing stronger than the whiskeywas the sight of her holdin my baby girl the way she adored that string a pearls I gave her the day that out youngest boy earlmarried his high school loveand it's a new t-shirt sayin' I'm a grandpa and being right there as the time got small and holdin' her hand when the good lord called her upyeah man thats the good stuff it's the good stuff.
