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' hang on the wall 
Stuff that' real, stuff you feel 
The kind of stuff you reach for when you fall 

I got a pretty good friend 
Who' seen me at my worst 
He can' tell if I'm a blessing 
Or a curse 
But he always shows up 
When the chips are down 
That' 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' take odds 
I got a tattoo with her name 
Right through my soul 
I think everything she touches 
Turns to gold
