THE BALLAD OF JED CLAMPETT
Earl Scruggs
FCome listen to a story 'bout a Dmman named GJed
A poor mountaineer, barely C6kept his family Ffed
Then one day he was Fshootin' at some Emfood
And Gup through the ground came a-C6bubblin' Fcrude
Oil that is. Black gold. Texas tea.
Well, the first thing you know old Jed's a millionaire
The kin folks said "Jed move away from there"
Said "California's the place you ought to be"
So they bundled up the truck and moved to Beverly
Hills that is. Swimmin' pools. Movie stars.
Well, now it's time to say goodbye to Jed and all his kin
They would like to thank you for kindly stoppin' in
You're all invited back next week to this locality
To have a heapin' helpin' of their hospitality
Peace, love, and soul,
Paul Zimmerman
