The Ballad Of Jed Clampett

Come and listen to my story about a man named jed.
poor mountianeer barely kept his family fed.
and then one day he was shooting at some food,
And up through the ground come a bubbling crude.
Oil that is, Black gold,
Texas tea…
Well the first thing you know Ole' Jed’s a millionaire …
kin folks said Jed move away from there said Californy is the place you ought
to be…
so they loaded up the truck and moved,
To Beverly…
hill’s that is swimming pools movie stars.
(secondverse)
Well Now it’s time to say goodbye to Jed and all his kin…
they would like to thank you folks for kindly dropping in,
Your all invited back again to this locality.
Hillbilly that is sit a spell take your shoes off.
y’all come back now ya hear
