Well, Me And My Lady Had Our First Big Fight
So I Drove Around 'Till I Saw The Neon Lights
Of A Corner Bar, It Just Seemed Right, So I Pulled Up
Not A Soul Around But The Old Barkeep
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 Droppin' The Ring In The Spaghetti Plate
'Cause Your Hands Are Shakin' So Much
And It's 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, That's The Good Stuff
He Grabbed A Carton Of Milk And He Poured A Glass
And I Smiled And Said I'll Have Some Of That
We Sat There And Talked As An Hour Passed Like Old Friends
Saw A Black And White Picture And He Caught My Stare
It Was A Pretty Girl With Bouffant 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 Holdin' Our 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 Grandpa
Bein' Right There As Our Time Got Small
And Holdin' Her Hand When The Good Lord Called Her Up
Yeah Man, That's The Good Stuff
He Said When You Get Home
