People Are Crazy

Currington explained to AOL why he recorded this Country-Rock number: "Just the title alone, when I was pitched this song, I was sure at that point that I was going to record it, I didn't care how it sounded. I just loved the title. I couldn't wait to put it in my truck and listen to it. I remember when I popped it in, and from the first verse to the first chorus, it just put a big smile on my face."

[Verse 1] 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-haired 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 [Chorus] God is great Beer is good And people are crazy [Verse 2] 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 'Bout every girl we knew What all we put them 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" [Chorus] But God is great Beer is good And people are crazy [Break] Last call is 2 a.m I said goodbye to him I never talked to him again [Verse 3] Then one sunny day I saw the old man's face Front page obituary He was a millionaire-y He left his fortune to Some guy he barely knew His kids were mad as hell Huh, but me, I'm doing well [Bridge] And I drop by today To just say thanks and pray I left a six-pack right there on his grave And I said [Chorus] God is great Beer is good And people are crazy [Chorus] God is great Beer is good And people are crazy [Chorus] God is great Beer is good And people are crazy
