THE GOOD STUFF
SQ by ChartChai MeeSangNinWell, me and my lady
had our first big fight
So I drove around
until I saw the neon lights
of a corner bar
It just seemed right
so I pulled up
Not a soul around
but the old bar keep
down at the end and
loooking half asleep
But he walked up
and said what'll it be?
I said the good stuff
He didn't reach around
for the whiskey
He didn't pour me a beer
His blue eyes kinda
went misty, He said
you can't find that here
'cause it's the first
long kiss on a second date
Momma's all worried
when you get home late
And dropping the ring in the
spaghetti plate 'cause your
hands are shaking so much
And it's the way that she
looks with the rice in her hair
Eating burnt supper
the whole first year
and asking for seconds
to keep her from tearing up
Yeah man, that's the good stuff
He grabbed a carton of
milk and he poured a glass
I smiled and said
I'll have some of that
We sat there and talked
as an hour passed
like old friends
I saw a black and white
picture and he
caught my stare
It was a pretty girl
with mufont hair
He said that's my Bonnie
taken about a year
after we wed
He said I spent five years
in the bottle when the
cancer took her from me
But I've been sober
three years now 'cause
the one thing stronger
than the whiskey was the
sight of her holding
my baby girl, the way she
adored that string of pearls
I gave her the day that
our youngest boy Earl
married his high school love
And it's a new T shirt saying
I'm a grandpa
Being right there
as our time got small and
holding her hand when
The Good Lord called her up
Yeah man, that's 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
Drink it up
'cause that's the good stuff
That's the good stuff
