People Are Crazy

This old man and me

Were at the bar and we

Were having us some beers and

Swapping '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 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, "Damned if I knew"

We talked an hour or two

About every girl we knew

What all we put 'em through

Like two old boys'll do

We pondered life and death

He lit a cigarette

Said, "these damn things'll kill me yet"

"But God is great, beer is good and people are crazy"

Last call, it's 2 AM

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

But me, I'm 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"
