The Singing Scoutmaster: Beverly Hillbillies

C                                  Dm        G    

Come 'n listen to my story 'bout a man named Jed  

                           C                    

A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed  

                         F                F#dim 

And then one day, he was shootin' at some food  

    G                                     C      

And up through the ground come a bubblin' crude  

C                                    

Oil, that is, black gold, Texas tea  

C                                   Dm             G     

Well, the first thing you know, old Jed's a millionaire  

                    C                     

Kin folk said, Jed, move away from there  

                       F                F#dim 

Said, Californy is the place you oughta be  

        G                                          C   

So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly  

C                                           C G C

C                                     Dm              G    

Well, now it's time to say goodbye to Jed and all his kin  

                                      C                   

They would like to thank you folks forkindly droppin' in  

                                 F          F#dim 

You're all invited back again to this locality  

   G                                        C   

To have a heapin' helpin' of their hospitality  

C                                                     

Hillbilly, that is, set a spell, take your shoes off  

(spoken)Y'all come back now, hear?
