Somebody had to do it ...

Cpme and listen to my story of a man named Jed
A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed
Then one day he was shooting at some food
And up from the ground come a bubbling 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"
They said California is the place you ought to be
So they loaded up their truck and he moved to Beverly
Beverly Hills that is
Swimming pools and movie stars

Green Acres and Petticoat Junction were both set in Hooterville (or Hootersville as Eva Gabor pronounced it), but somebody slipped acid into Green Acres' drinking water.

Baby, if you've ever wondered,
wondered whatever became of me,
I'm livin' on the air in Cincinnati,
Cincinnati WKRP.

Got kinda tired of packin' and unpackin',
round and round, up and down the dial.
Maybe you and me were never meant to be,
just maybe think of me once in a while.

I'm at double-you kay are pee in Cincinna--ti.

And now... the closing lyrics:

Said to the bartender "Best night I ever had"
Singin' to the bar
Had a microphone (in)to her heart

I said -
Goodbye madam
I'd had a bird in hand

I said -
I'm doing good
And put love in her heart

And up through the ground came a bubblin crude.

Kinfolk said "Jed move away from there"
Said "Californy is the place you ought to be"
So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly.

Hills, that is. Swimmin pools, movie stars.


Well now its time to say good by to Jed and all his kin.
And they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin in.
You're all invited back a gain to this locality
To have a heapin helpin of their hospitality

Hillybilly that is. Set a spell, Take your shoes off.

Y'all come back now, y'hear?.

Who makes the fog surrounding the Golden Gate simply disappear?
Phyllis, Phyllis
Who makes the warning bells on the cable cars play "The Gangs All Here"?
Phyllis, Phyllis
Who charms the crabs at Fisherman's Wharf right out of their shells?
Who lights the lamps of Chinatown just by walking in view? Who?
Phyllis! Phyllis! Phyllis! It sure isn't you!
