I got an ol' blue shirt 

And it suits me just fine 

I like the way it feels 

So I wear it all the time 

I got an old guitar 

It won't ever stay in tune 

I like the way it sounds 

In a dark and empty room 



I got an ol' pair of boots 

And they fit just right 

I can work all day 

And I can dance all night 

I got an ol' used car 

And it runs just like a top 

I get the feelin' it ain't 

Ever gonna stop 



Chorus 



Stuff that works, stuff that holds up 

The kind of stuff you don't hang on the wall 

Stuff that's real, stuff you feel 

The kind of stuff you reach for when you fall 



I got a pretty good friend 

Who's seen me at my worst 

He can't tell if I'm a blessing 

Or a curse 

But he always shows up 

When the chips are down 

That's the kind of stuff 

I like to be around 



Chorus 



I got a woman I love 

She's crazy and paints like God 

She's got a playground sense of justice 

She won't take odds 

I got a tattoo with her name 

Right through my soul 

I think everything she touches 

Turns to gold 



Chorus
