Huh. I “remembered ” that Tennessee was mentioned in the theme song. But nope.
“The Ballad of Jed Clampett”
Written by Paul Henning / Music by Flatt and Scruggs / Sung by Jerry Scoggins
Come and listen to my story about a man named Jed
A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed.
And then one day he was shootin’ at some food,
And up through the ground come a-bubblin’ crude.
Oil, that is. Black gold. Texas tea.
Well, the first thing you know ol’ Jed’s a millionaire,
The kinfolk said “Jed, move away from there!”
Said, “Californy is the place you ought to be,”
So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly
Hills, that is. Swimmin’ pools, movie stars.
Well, now it’s time to say goodbye to Jed and all his kin.
And they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin’ in.
You’re all invited back next week to this locality
To have a heapin’ helpin’ of their hospitality.
Hillbilly, that is. Set a spell. Take your shoes off.
Y’all come back now, y’hear?
