Spent the night with Jim Beam and Johnny Walker red

Woke up with a freight train running through my head

I'm a beer man

Sammy sips martinis, Willie smokes pot

But I'm a beer man

Bm A
I've done a little stepping out there on a limb

But my open mind winds up closed again

I like brown bottles and aluminum cans
Em A
Simple maybe but that's who I am

Hey I'm just a beer man

Take your caviar and that fish that ain't cooked
D
Take it off a cracker and throw it on a hook

I'm a beer man
D
And if I was a rich man tell you what I'd do
D
I'd be the same old plain old guy you always knew
G
Just a beer man
