Guy Clark - Stuff That Works lyrics

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
