Текст песни The Ballad of Jed Clampett - Earl Scruggs , Lester Flatt

Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Jed
Poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed
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 old Jed's a millionaire
Kin folk said, "Jed move away from there"
He said, "California is the place you oughta be"
So he loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly
Hills that is, swimming pools, movie stars
Now it's time to say goodbye to Jed and all his kin
They would like to thank you folks for kindly dropping in
You're all invited back again to this locality
To have a heaping helping of their hospitality
Beverly Hillbillies, that's what they call 'em now
Nice folks, y'all come back now, y'hear?
