What prompted the Clampett family hillbillies to "load up the truck and move to Beverly. . . Hills that is."
Answer Striking oil
Here's how it happened:
Come and listen to my story about 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 come a bubblin crude.
Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea. . .
