Come n' listen to ma story 'bout a man named Jed
a 'po mountaineer barley kept his family fed
then one day he was shootin' at some food
when up from th' ground come a bubblin' crude.
Oil that is!
Black gold!
Texas tea!
Well, first thing ya know, ol' Jed's a millionaire
the kin folk say "Jed get away from here"
they said "Californy is the place ya oughta be"
so they loaded up the truck and mover ta Beverly
Hills that is...swimin' pools...movie stars
Ole Jed bought a mansion
lawdy ain't it swank
th' nex' door neighbor is president of th' bank
(I forget the rest of the words to the 2nd verse)
