This old man and me, were at the bar
And we were having us some beers and swaping I don't cares
Talking politics, blonde and red-head chicks
Old dogs and new tricks and habits we ain't kicked
We talked about God's 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 about every girl we knew
What all we put them through
Like two old boys will do
We pondered life and d**h
He lit a cigarette
He said "These damn things will k** me yet
But God is great, beer is good and people are crazy"
Last call it's 2am, I said goodbye to him
I never talk to him again
Then one sunny day, I saw the old man's 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, I'm doing well
And I drop by today, to just say thanks and pray
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
