歌词
This old man and me, were at the bar and we
这个老人和我，我们曾经在酒吧
Were having us some beers and swaping I don't cares
喝着啤酒唠着嗑，这些事我一点儿也不在意
Talking politics, blonde and red-head chicks
谈谈国家政治，也少不了金发红发的小妞
Old dogs and new tricks and habits we ain't kicked
聊一群老伙计的新鲜事儿，和一些我俩还没改的习惯
然后谈论上帝的恩赐，和各自闯的祸
We talked about Gods grace and all the hell we raised
然后我听见那老头儿说：
Then I heard the ol' man say;
“上帝真伟大，啤酒真好喝，人们真疯狂！”
God is great, beer is good and people are crazy
他说：“我参加过两场战争，
结婚又离婚”
He said "I fought two wars,
那什么风把你吹到俄亥俄来了？
Been married and divorced"
他说:“淦，我怎么知道”
What brings you to Ohio?
我们又聊了一两个小时，
He said "Damned if I know"
说着我们认识的每一个女孩儿
We talked an hour or two
我们和她们发生过什么?
about every girl we knew
两个老男孩还能干出什么
What all we put them through
我们度量着生存与死亡
Like two old boys will do
他点燃了一支香烟
他说:“这些东西迟早会要了我的命；
We pondered life an death
但上帝很伟大，啤酒很好喝，人啊都疯了”
He light a cigarette
最后一次联系是在凌晨两点，
He said "These damn things will kill me yet;
我对他说再见
But God is great, beer is good and people are crazy"
再未与他对话
后来在一个大晴天
Last call its 2am,
我再一次看见那老人的脸
I said goodbye to him
他被印在讣告的封面，
I never talk to him again
也成了一个百万富翁
他把遗产都留给了
Then one sunny day,
一个他几乎不认识的人
I saw the old mans face
他的孩子们都气疯了
Front page Obituary,
哈，但我呢，我过得很不错
he was a millionaree
今天我去拜访他，
he left his fortune to
只是道声谢谢并为他祈祷，
some guy he barely knew,
在他的坟墓前留下六听啤酒
his kids were mad as hell
然后我说：“上帝真伟大，
But me, I'm doing well
啤酒真好喝，人们真疯狂”
And I drop by today,
“上帝真伟大，啤酒真好喝，人们都疯了”
to just say thanks and pray,
“上帝依然伟大，啤酒依然美味，人们也依然疯狂”
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.
