Lyrics:

This old man and me

We're at the bar and we

We're havin' us some beers and

Swappin' "I don't cares"

Talkin' 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 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, "Damn 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 do

We pondered life and death

He lit 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 2:00 a.m

I said goodbye to him

I never talked to him again

Then one sunny day

I saw the old man's face

Front 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
