The Good Stuff ~Kenny Chesney
Well me and my lady had our first big fight s o I drove around until I saw the neon lights
A corner bar, just seemed right so I pulled up
Not a soul around but the old barkeep down at the end looking half asleep
When he walked up and said what will 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 kind of went misty
He said you can't find that here
'Cause it's the first long kiss on the second date
Momma's all worried when you get home late
And dropping the ring in the spaghetti plate because your hands are shaking so much
It's the way she that looks with rice in her hair
Eating burnt suppers 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 and 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 Bufont 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 because the one thing stronger than the whiskey
Was the sight of her holding 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
It's a new t-shirt saying I'm a grandpa
Being right there as her 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
Look into those eyes so deep in love...
Drink it up
'Cause that's the good stuff
That's the good stuff
