The Good Stuff

歌詞

Well me and my lady had our first big fight so I drove around till I saw the neon light at a corner bar just seemed right so I pulled up not a soul around but the old bar keep down at the end and looking half asleep but he walked up and said what'l it be I said the good stuff he didnt reach around for the whiskey he didnt pour me a beer his blue eyes kinda went misty he said you cant find that here It's the first long kiss on the second date and mama's all worried when you get home late and dropin' the ring in the spagetti plate cuz your hands are shakin' so much and its the way that she looks with the rice in her hair eatin' burnt suppers the whole first year and askin for seconds to keep her from tearin' up yeah man thats the good stuff He grabbed a carton a milk and he poured a glass I smiled and said ill have some a that we sat there and talked as an hour passed like old friend saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare it was a pretty girl with bouffant hair he said thats my bonnie taken bout a year after we wed He 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 whiskey was 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 Earl married his high school love and 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 up yeah man thats the good stuff he said when you get home she'll start to cry when she says I'm sorry say so am I and look into those eyes so deep in love and drink it up cause that's the good stuff that's the good stuff
