Story behind the song
I really enjoy this song, partly because I firmly believe a lot of people are crazy.
Lyrics
This old man and me, were at the bar and we
Were having us some beers and swappin' I dont cares.
'Talking politics, blonde and redhead chicks,
Old dogs and new tricks, and habits we aint kicked.
We talked about Gods grace, and all the hell we raised.
Then I heard the ol' man say,
"God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy!"
He said, "I fought two wars, been married and divorced."
What brings you to Ohio? He said, "Damned if I know!"
We talked an hour or two, bout every girl we knew,
What all we put them through, like two old boys will do.
We pondered life and death, he lit a cigarette.
'Said these damn things'll kill me yet.
God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy.
Last call, two am, I said goodbye to him.
I never talked to him again.
Then one sunny day, I saw the old mans face.
Front page obituary, he was a millionaire.
He left his fortune to, some guy he barely knew.
His kids were mad as hell, but me, Im doing well.
And I dropped by today, to just say thanks and pray.
And I left a six-pack right there on his grave.
And I said, God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy.
God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy.
God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy.
