This old man and me were at the bar and we
Were havin' us some beers and swappin' I don't cares
Talkin' politics, blonde and red head chicks
Old dogs and new tricks and habits we ain't kickedWe 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 crazyHe 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 'em through like two old boys will doWe pondered life an death, he lit a cigarette
He said these damn things will kill me yet
But God is great, beer is good and people are crazyLast call it's 2 a.m., 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 I am doing wellAnd 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 crazyGod is great, beer is good and people are crazy
God is great, beer is good and people are crazy
