Lyrics

This old man and me
Were at the bar and we
Were having us some beers and
Swapping I don't care
Talking politics
Blonde and redhead 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 old man saying
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 "Damn if I know"
We talked an hour or two
About every girl we knew
What all we put on through
Like two old boys would do

We pondered life and death
He lighted a cigarette
He said "These damn things will kill me yet
But God is great, beer is good and people are crazy"

Last call it's 2: 00am
I said goodbye to him
I never talked to him again

Then one sunny day
I saw the old man's face
From the page obituary
He was a millionaire he
He left his fortune to
Some guy he barely knew
His kids were mad as hell
Huh but me, I'm doing well
And I drop 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
