Well me and my lady had our first big fight 
So I drove around till I saw the neon lights 
At the corner bar it just seemed right so I pulled up 

Not a soul around but the old barkeep 
Down at the end and looking half asleep 
And he walked over and said what'll it be I said the good stuff 

He didn't reach around for the wisky 
He didn't pour me a beer 
His blue eyes kinda went misty 
He said you can't find that here 

Casue its the first long kiss on the second date 
Mama's all worried when ou get home late 
And droping the ring in the spiggetti plate 
Cause you hand are shaking so much 
And its the way she lookes with rice in her hair 
Eating burnt suppers the whole first year 
And asking for seconds just to keep her from tearing 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 
I saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare 
It was a pretty girl with beuphant hair 
He said thats my bonnie takin bought a year after we were wed 

He said I spent five years at the bottom 
When the cancer took her from me 
And I've been sober 3 years now 
Cause the one thing stronger then the wisky 

Was the sight of 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 hight school love 
And its a new tee shirt sayin im a grandpa 
Being right there as her time got small 
And holding her hand as the good lord called her up 
Yeah man thats the good stuff 

When you get home she'll start to cry 
When she says sorry say so am I 
And look in to those eyes so deep in love 
And drink it up 

Cause that's the good stuff
