Ballad of Jed Clampett Roy Clark
[D]Come [D7]and [G]listen to my story 'bout a [D]man named Jed
[D7]Poor mountaineer, barely [G]kept his family fed
[D]And [G]then one day he was [C]shootin' at some food
And [D7]up through the ground came a [D]bubbling [G]crude
("Oil, that is, Texas tea, black gold")
....
[D]Well [D7]the [G]first thing you know, old [D]Jed's a millionaire
[D7]Friends said, 'Jed, ya ought ta [G]move away from here'
[D]They [G]said that Californey was the [C]place he ought ta be . . .
So he [D7]loaded up the truck and they [D]moved to Bever-[G]ly
(Hills, that is, . . . swimming pools . . . movie stars)
....
[D]Well, now [D7]it's [G]time to say goodbye to [D]Jed and all his kin
They would [D7]surely like to thank you folks for [G]kindly dropping in
[D]You're [G]all invited back again to [C]this locality . . .
To [D7]have a heaping helping of their [D]hospitali-[G]ty
("Beverly Hillbillies, that's what they call 'em now")
("Nice folks, Y'all come back now, y'hear?")
