the Good Stuff - Kenny Chesney


Well me and my lady had our first big fight
So i drove around till i saw the neon light
The corner bar just seemed right so i pulled up
Not a soul around but the old bar keep down at the end lookin half asleep
He walked up and said what'll be
I said the good stuff
He didnt reach around for the whiskey
He didnt pour me a beer
His blue eyes kinda went misty and said you cant find that here

*chorus*
Cause its the first long kiss on the 2nd date
Mama's all worried when you get home late
And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate cause your hands are shakin so much
And its the way that she looks with her eyes in her hair
Eatin burnt suppers the whole 1st year and askin for 2nd's
To keep her from tearin up
Yeah man thats 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
Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare
It was a pretty girl with blue fond hair
He said thats my bonnie taken bout a year after we were wed
He said its been 5 years in the bottle
When the cancer took it from
But i've been sober 3 years now cause the one things stronger then the whiskey

*chorus*
Was the sight of her holdin 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 highschool love
And its a new tshirt sayin im a grandpa
Its been right there as the time got small
And holdin her hand when the good lord called her up
Yeah man thats the good stuff

He said when you get home she'll start to cry
When she says im sorry say so am i
Look into her eyes so deep in love
Drink it up
Cause thats the good stuff
Thats the good stuff
