I've got an old blue shirt and it suits me just fine
|
I like the way it feels so I wear it all the time
|
I've got an old guitar that won't ever stay in tune
|
But I like the way it sounds in a dark and empty room
|
I've got an old pair of boots that fit my feet just right
|
I can work all day and go out and dance all night
|
I've got a new used car that runs just like a top
|
Yeah I get the feeling it ain't ever gonna stop
|
Stuff that works stuff that holds up
|
Is the kind of stuff you don't hang on the wall
|
Stuff that's real that stuff you feel
|
Is the stuff you always reach for when you fall
|
|
I've got a pretty good friend who's seen me at my worst
|
He don't care if I'm a blessing or a curse
|
But he always shows up when the chips are down
|
That's the kind of friend I like to be around
|
Stuff that works...

[ guitar ]
|
There's a woman I love she's crazy and she paints like God
|
She's got a playground sense of justice she don't give odds
|
I've got a tattoo with her name right through my soul
|
And I think everything she touches turns to gold
|
Stuff that works...
|
Stuff that works...
