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
