Ballad Of Jed Clampett Lyrics - The Essential Flatt & Scruggs: 'tis Sweet To Be Remembered - Flatt And Scruggs

Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Jed 

Poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed 

Then one day he was shooting for 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 

Said California is the place you oughta be 

So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly 

(Hills that is, swimming pools, movie stars) 

 

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 

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, ya hear?)
