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