It is a commentary on keeping in touch with family. When a stranger spends more time with you than your own kids, they deserve to lose everything!

just shows you that you never know who you will meet. treat everyone decently. treat the janitor like you would treat a famous person

I agree. I was at a Pantera concert. This overweight guy with blue hair came came up and gave me a purple sticker that said After Show. And said see you after the show. I looked at it and said "Sure ok buddy" gave him the thumbs up. I thought it was a joke. Concert ended it was announced those with the purple passes line up over here your gonna meet the band . Turned out the guy was for real he was the tour manager. We talked and had a good laugh.

Another good song by Billy Currington you should react to is Good Directions

The story the song tells is so real, kids just waiting around for an inheritance while the elderly parent/s are lonely, strangers show the parent friendship, care and even fun.

I met him when he was starting to get big, and he was a prick. Later found out he was going through an awful lot of personal issues. Respect him and his career for what he's overcome. Still respect his music and him because we're all human and go through shit.

The reason I say he was a prick was because he was hammered drunk during the meet and greet, was grabbing girls asses when pictures were being taken, and didn't talk to any guy who wanted to say hey. Like I said, I get it, but it was during a shit time in his life with alcohol and womanizing.

@@zacklaws6551 My comments were based upon meeting him in 2003 or 2004 when he collabed with Shania Twain. He got a big head and was absolutely a prick. He got too big for his britches at the time with fast fame. My comment above explains. Im past it and in my original comment commend him for overcoming addiction and still appreciate his artistry

This song just goes to show you never know how kindness can change someone's life!!!!

The old man said that he fought two wars. That is important. It seems to go above most folks minds.

Billy Currington ‘Good Directions is another good one to react too. Always makes me smile.

As a female, I love talking with and hanging out with the "older" guys. They have the best stories and they are waaaayyyy more the gentleman then the majority of guys today. Even my daughter says she would rather hang out with men her grandfather's age than any her age ... she even "gets" them and thinks they are the coolest.

It’s a shame that so many guys, particularly guys my age, their early 20s-around their 30s, aren’t gentlemen, my parents, more so my mom, always taught me to treat women with respect and I try my best to be as much of a gentleman as possible. Some girls don’t seem to appreciate that though which sucks but I stay true to myself.

Billy Currington is just a very good songwriter. I love this song and its sentiment.

Billy Currington -Good Directions. His best story EVER.

You should react to Billy Currington - Good Directions. This is probably one of the best songs I have heard him sing.

i love this song because its not only a good story but weather real or not is an example how valuable little acts of kindness are .

**Please forgive any and all grammatical errors because I cannot find my reading glasses 👓 anywhere as usual, so I truly apologize in advance because I can barely see to type or read without them 👓‼️💯👓👓👓👓👓👓👓💯‼️ I need to start wearing them 👓 on a chain around my neck honestly‼️‼️‼️ This isn’t a true story to Billy but there’s been many times over the years that parents have left their lazy, irresponsible and ungrateful child/children nothing because they believed they deserved the money for nothing. My grandmother took care of her Aunt and Uncle In Law (the Uncle was my grandfather’s actual blood relative) and it’s was at the end of both their life’s (about 3-4 years apart) she was and did everything for them both!!!The nurse, cooking and cleaning while she’s raising five young children under 9 years old and a baby only a year old at the time of his death!!!!!!! They lived with my grandparents but not any other niece’s or nephews ever came to help or let her take a break and she never complained!!!!! He left his entire fortune (2.3 million and 1 million trust to the church with my grandmother as the one to oversee that part) to my grandmother in 1972!!!!!!! My grandfather wasn’t happy but he got over it and his last will and testament he’d had changed while his wife was sick/dying, he watched to see who did what or came around to help!!!!!! In the will he stated it all out in (Black and White) why and how the things he said they could have (like family heirlooms) were up to my grandmother because he said how he watched her take care of his wife who was in bad shape for six months at the end and my grandmother never complained or got mad at the situation!!!!! She was to give out whatever she felt they deserved and if anyone contested the will they’d get nothing and would pay the entire court costs!!!!!!!! My grandmother of course wasn’t ugly about giving heirlooms some requested out, his nephew’s weren’t that upset and seemed to understand but as for being mad or ugly that was his niece’s and the nephew’s wife’s, but that didn’t last to long either!!!!!!! So even strangers have been friends with people that lived humble and modest lives, thy left their millions to the one or ones who were there for them and not the child/children who just assumed that for some reason they deserved it and never even visited except to borrow money!!!!!!! Always be kind and caring because honestly you never know, but doing it from the heart ♥️ is only going to be good for you, your mind, body and soul no matter if there’s money or even a penny involved!!!!!!!! It’s a story and lessons that some have tried to teach others over the years about what’s truly important in life, how just having good character and being a kind caring human being is good for you as much as the person you’re helping out!!!!!!!!

“It’s Billy watching Billy” #Billyception

I remember my son singing this to our pastor at the cowboy church I go to. The pastor laughed so hard

This song is so true , I love it

FINALLY! Someone has done a reaction to this song. It is a perfect song to react too

I love this song. I have random conversations with people like this often but none have left me mountains of money. The stories have definitely been worth the time :-)

Makes you think about how good that conversation must have been and how good his own kids treated the old man.

I have met Billy Currington in person, and he is one of the sweetest humans on the planet!

Billy Currington one of my favorite artist. Saw him live did the whole show barefoot. No care in the world

What i loved was the old man gave a stranger who just had a normal conversation a lot of money because his kids never took the time and thought that they would get all the dad;s money and just ignored the dad but guess what they didn't. Take the time to know and talk to people cause that may just make that persons day and give hem hope that someone cares.

I love this song so much! It was a big part of my childhood. This song makes me happy and sad all at once

Absolutely love this song. Thanks for the great reaction

Awesome song. Billy was born and raised less then a mile from me. The old man in the video is James Day I grew up with his daughter and sons they owned a big roofing company in my hometown of Rincon Georgia. Spent many of summers fishing and hanging out on the sandbars partying with him. Mr. James was a wise ole man got my ass tore up a time or two by him he was a awesome soul. He past away a few years back. And we still get together and play this song and remember all the good times we had growing up. Gone but never will be forgotten

This is why I talk to A lot of people. Being safe obviously, but you never know what a good conversation can do.

My grandpa and I listened to this when I was growing up, all the time, this was our song, he passed away in 2018 and every time I ride the trails by the family cemetery I stop by and play it on my guitar, ride high grandpa, someday we'll be together riding those Harley's through those streets of gold

This song just makes you feel good :) i love it!!!

I love this song for this very true people are crazy

Love Billy Currington so good man.

I absolutely love this song and was so glad to see this on your reaction videos. I’ve always taken this as a message that you never know the impact you can have on someone’s life just by giving them just a little of your time, someone to talk to. It costs you nothing, but it could mean the world to them. The money was just an added anecdote, not the main message.

Story behind the song "decided think of three things you can't argue with, and I came up with "God is great; beer is good; people are crazy." I went back to the house, got my guitar and ended up writing several lines that wound up being the first verse of the song. I knew I had my first writing session with Bobby that next week, so I held onto the lyrics and melody to play it for him. I was a little nervous to write with him, because he's such a legendary songwriter. I played him what I had, and he said, "Man, I love it." It was Bobby's idea to make the guy rich and leave all his money to the kid he's talking to in the song instead of his own kids. I wasn't too sure about that idea, but I figured if you can't trust Bobby with your song, who can you trust? "

I knew a guy in FL named Ed and he lived in a single wide. No air conditioner. In FL!!! He ran a scrap metal business. He was super cool. He and I used to sit out and drink vodka. He had no kids or ex. He once showed me his safe. He and I counted 4 million dollars over the course of a few weeks. RIP, Ed. I never knew happened to him but his trailer was just empty one day.

Love this song

This song brings to mind an old urban legend: Two traveling salesmen and best friends, we'll call them fred and George, stopped for the night at a bed and breakfast. Fred noticed George was hitting it off well with the widow who ran the place so he turned in early. 6 months later, fred gets a letter in the mail from a lawyer. He calls George and asks "When you were with that widow, did you give her my name?" George admits that he did. Fred then says, "Well I guess I should thank you. She just passed away and left me $100k in her will. " Please review Brett Eldredge "She calls me Raymond " sometime.

Loving the reactions, keep them coming!

One of my favorite songs.. ❤❤❤

One thing that I learned in the military. We are ALL THE SAME. When we add music. Everything is all right.

I feel that the statements made illustrate the point of the song. God is good, beer is great, and "people are crazy". The fact that an old man connected better with a stranger in an afternoon of drinking than his own family seems to be the modern view of our lack of connect, and for him to leave his fortune to that stranger seems about how things now work

shows all he needed was a friend, family obviously wasn't there for him

I haven't heard this in forever,thank you for reacting to this. Love it!!

You think saying your name is weird? Well this is Billy watching Billy reacting to Billy

I used to listen to this on my way to work EVERY day to get my mind set! Lol

Hahaha. I was just waiting to see your reaction to the last verse. Love this song.

My grandfather actually has these lyrics, “ God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy” tattooed on his arm.

That was One Hell of a conversation !!!

Billy Currington is from a small town here in Ga. and so is the old man. He is the father of one of Billys Childhood friends and is also deceased now . Pretty sure his family got his inheritance..😀

I was just thinking about this song the other day.was going to comment this song for u to play.. small world.. love this song

Ayy Billy your reactions are priceless I must of replayed this a cool 20 or more times especially when billy currington said front page obituary sad but Billy's reaction got me and me I'm doing well ahhhhhh man I was crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣 keep it billy God bless you

He just spend time with him, that's all some elders need

Get you a Billy!!! I need a Billy in my life!!! LOL

Reaction to this is priceless. 😆👌🏼

Billy does good music. Good Directions. Good at Drinking Beer. This.

I feel like it might have been one of those things where the old mans kids didn't call or check up on him often so when he had a nice long conversation with someone finally he wanted to do something nice for them in return.

See what respect and kindness does?

Words to live by

Just goes to show you never know what a person is going through and how much a simple conversation would mean to them

I love this song

Sometimes older people who are well to do, make the decision to leave someone their earthly goods when they die, simply because that person made time for them, treated them like they mattered. All too often you hear stories of kids growing up with money and when their parents or grandparents that made that lifestyle possible for them, are older and need them to be there for them, someone just to talk to or comfort them, give them a little bit of their time, the kids or grandkids are nowhere to be found. In this song, the old man found what he needed in a stranger, and felt compelled to reward him in his own way, for caring about others.

before covid 19 i would just randomly sit with older people start talking i made alot of real friends this way

Been a long time since I heard this song

Love your reactions

It just shows his family didn't care about him they just wanted his money. But a stranger came along spent a little time with him made him happy and got rewarded

I know someone that something similar happened to. He showed kindness to an old man that had no family. The old man left him money and property well in excess of a million dollars. You know some people do win the lottery. Wish it could be me.

Looks like you got a new piece of merch. "GET CHU A BILLY!"

Thank you

Love this song 😊

Yesssss u read my mind

Love your neighbor as yourself...everybody needs a Billy😉

I kinda saw some foreshadowing there when the old man lit a cigarette and said, “one day these things‘ll kill me “. Hinting at lung cancer maybe?

The guy who wrote that lived on the outskirts of my hometown Sylacauga Alabama

Check out his song called "Like My Dog"!!! Sooo funny!!! I looked and NOBODY has reacted to that song yet! One of my favs.
