Well me and my lady had our first big fight,

So I drove around till I saw the neon lights,

At a corner bar, and it just seemed right, so I pulled up,

Not a soul around but the ol' barkeep,

Down at the end lookin 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,

Said you can't find that here,

 Cause it's the first long kiss on a second date

Mamma's all worried when you get home late

 And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate,

Cause your hands are shaking so much

 It's the way she looks with rice in her hair

Eatin burnt suppers the whole first year

And askin for seconds, to keep her from tearin up,

 Yeah man that's the Good Stuff

He grabbed a carton of milk and poured a glass

I smiled and said I'll have some of that

We sat there and talked as an hour passed like ol' friends

Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare

Was a pretty girl with bouffant hair

 He said that's my Bonnie, takin bout a year after we wed

 He said spent five years in the bottle when the cancer took her from me

 I've been sober for three years now,

 Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey was the

 The sight of her holdn 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 sayin I'm a Grand Pa

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

 And drink it up

 Cause that's the Good Stuff

 That's the Good Stuff
