This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
This old man and me, were at the bar and we
Were having us some beers and swaping 'I don't cares'
Talking politics, blond 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 ol' 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 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 light 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 2AM, 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 left his fortune to some guy he barely knew, his kids were mad as hell
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
Were having us some beers and swaping 'I don't cares'
Talking politics, blond 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 ol' 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 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 light 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 2AM, 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 left his fortune to some guy he barely knew, his kids were mad as hell
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

Page

Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
Actually, if you listen close, you can see it's a really nice song. Country songs are usually a ballad: they tell a story. In this story, it's about a guy who meets an old man at a bar and they start to talk about life and god. They have a really deep and interesting conversation but it comes to an end when they need to leave. Then one day, the guy sees an obituary on the newspaper with the face of the old man he was talking to, so he got the news that the old man died. But he also found out that he was a millionaire and he left all his money and wealth to him, the "guy he barely knew." His kids "were mad as hell" because the old man didn't leave them a cent! So the guy says he's doing well (of course) but he decides to drop by the old man's grave as a thanks. He brings a six-pack of beer to leave on the grave because he remembers talking to him about how "beer is good." So basically this story is to show the story of a man who met a rich guy at the bar and had a good conversation about it and in the end became rich because the old man left it all to him instead of his family.
