Come and listen while I tell you about a man named Jed
A poor mountaineer but he kept a family fed
Hey! Come listen to me now while I tell you a story about a man named Jed
Tell ya'll somethin'
He's a poor mountaineer
But he kept his family fed!
Chord change!
Then one day he was shootin' at some food
When up near the ground came a bubblin' crude
Oil that is! Black gold!
Then the next thing you know Old' Jed's a millionaire
Keep away Chh chh chh Keep you away from there! (whispering)
Said California's the place you outta be
So they loaded up their truck and they moved to Beverly
Hills That Is, come on!
