[00:11.72]Well, me an my lady had our first big fight,
[00:15.03]So I drove around til I saw the neon light.
[00:17.77]
[00:18.64]A corner bar, an it just seemed right.
[00:21.64]So I pulled up.
[00:22.89]
[00:24.82]Not a soul around but the old bar keep,
[00:28.44]Down at the end an looking half asleep.
[00:31.12]
[00:31.87]An he walked up, an said whatll it be?
[00:34.81]I said the good stuff.
[00:36.43]
[00:38.48]He didnt reach around for the whiskey
[00:40.79]
[00:41.86]He didnt pour me a beer.
[00:43.60]
[00:45.35]His blue eyes kinda went misty,
[00:47.10]
[00:48.16]He said you cant find that here.
[00:50.09]
[00:51.65]cos its the first long kiss on a second date.
[00:54.21]
[00:55.33]Mommas all worried when you get home late.
[00:58.64]And droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate,
[01:00.96]
[01:01.57]cos your hands are shakin so much.
[01:03.63]
[01:04.57]An its the way that she looks with the rice in her hair.
[01:08.56]Beatin bug suppers, the whole first year,
[01:12.06]An askin for seconds to keep her from tearin up.
[01:16.24]Yeah, man, thats the good stuff.
[01:22.73]
[01:24.91]He grabbed a carton of milk an her poured a glass.
[01:28.16]
[01:29.09]An I smiled an said Ill have some of that.
[01:31.41]
[01:32.09]We sat there an talked as an hour passed,
[01:34.33]
[01:35.02]Like old friends.
[01:36.58]
[01:38.27]I saw a black an white picture an it caught my stare,
[01:41.82]It was a pretty girl with bouffant hair.
[01:44.69]
[01:45.51]He said thats my bonnie,
[01:46.63]
[01:47.25]Taken bout a year after we were wed.
[01:49.12]
[01:51.62]He said spend 5 years in the bar
[01:53.86]
[01:55.05]When the cancer took her from me.
[01:57.30]
[01:58.73]But Ive been sober three years now,
[02:01.17]
[02:01.73]cos the one thing stronger than the whiskey
[02:04.16]
[02:05.16]Was the sight of her holdin my baby girl.
[02:07.59]
[02:08.78]The way she adored that string of pearls,
[02:11.96]I gave her the day that our youngest boy, earl,
[02:15.71]Married his high school love.
[02:17.39]
[02:18.33]An its a new tee-shirt saying Im a grandpa.
[02:21.20]
[02:22.14]Bein right there as our time got small,
[02:25.50]An holdin her hand, when the good lord called her up,
[02:30.05]
[02:31.12]Yeah, man, thats the good stuff.
[02:36.73]
[02:45.28]He said when you get home, shell start to cry.
[02:48.65]When she says Im sorry, say so am i.
[02:51.21]
[02:52.21]An look into those eyes, so deep in love,
[02:56.69]
[02:58.26]An drink it up.
[03:00.26]
[03:02.00]cos thats the good stuff.
[03:06.06]
[03:08.49]Thats the good stuff.
