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.
Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.
Well the first thing you know
Ol' Jed's a millionaire,
Kinfolk said "Jed move away from there".
Said "California's the place you outta be".
So they loaded up the truck
And they moved to Beverly.
Hills that is, Swimming pools, movie stars.
Well now it's time to say
Goodby to Jed and all his kin,
They would like to thank
You folks for kindly droppin' in.
You're all invited back again to this locality
To have a heapin' helpin' of their hospitality.
Hillbilly that is, sit a spell, take your shoes off.
Y'all come back now, y'hear?
Flatt and Scruggs è un duo bluegrass statunitense formatosi negli anni '40. Composto dal banjo player Earl Scruggs e dal cantante e chitarrista Lester Flatt, il gruppo ha rivoluzionato il genere con la loro musica innovativa e virtuosistica. Scruggs, in particolare, è noto per aver inventato lo stile di banjo "three-finger picking", che ha avuto un impatto duraturo sulla musica bluegrass. Flatt and Scruggs hanno registrato numerosi album di successo, tra cui "Foggy Mountain Gospel" e "Foggy Mountain Jamboree". Il loro brano più famoso è "Foggy Mountain Breakdown", diventato un classico del genere grazie alla sua apparizione nel film "Bonnie and Clyde" (1967). Il duo ha vinto numerosi premi Grammy e ha lasciato un'eredità duratura nella musica americana. Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi di Flatt and Scruggs sono: "Foggy Mountain Breakdown", "The Ballad of Jed Clampett", "I'm Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes" e "Salty Dog Blues".
