Flatt and Scruggs, "The Ballad Of Jed Clampett"
Misheard Lyrics:
Come listen to the story
'Bout a man nemed Jed
The poor mountaineer
Barely kept his family's head
And then one day
He was shootin' at some gruel
And up from the cloud came a bubblin' cruel.
'Bout a man nemed Jed
The poor mountaineer
Barely kept his family's head
And then one day
He was shootin' at some gruel
And up from the cloud came a bubblin' cruel.
Original Lyrics:
Come and listen to my story
'Bout 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 came a-bubblin' crude.
'Bout 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 came a-bubblin' crude.
The theme song from "The Beverly Hillbillies" TV show
