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

Poor Mountaineer barely kept his family fed

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

An' up thru the ground came a bubblin' crude.

Oil that is! Black gold! Texas tea!



Well, the first thing ya know, Jed's a millionaire

Kin-folk said, "Jed, move away from there." Said

Californy is the place y'oughta be, so they

loaded up the truck, and they moved to Beverly.

Hills that is! Swimmin' pools, Movie stars!



Ol' Jed bought a mansion. Lawdy it was swank

Next door neighbor was pres'dent of the bank,

Lotsa folks objected, but the banker found no fault,

'Cause ol' Jed's millions was a-layin' in the vault

Cash, that is! Capital gains, Depletion money!



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

An' they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin' in.

You're all invited back again to this locality,

T'have a heapin' helpin' of their hospitality.

Hillbilly, that is! Set a spell, Take your shoes off!

Y'all come back, here!

Howdy XTC,

Well..I tried to watch the show,but I quickly realized,that it was an anti-war message being promoted by those against the war in Iraq,and the war on terror..the part I saw,was near the end and the actors were talking about the caualties at a refinery in Saudi. I'll try and watch it from the beginning,I'm sure that they'll repeat it..maybe I'm wrong..?

Have a good one ....

The acting was horrible, but it sent a good message. You're right Torog the strategic oil is there not for for us to use at the pumps. I don't know if it will having any more airings, probably not.

There is a good message in the program. It's just amazing to see how vulnerable and unstable our great country is regarding our dependence on this black liquid for our entire economy. It's time we start REALLY looking for alternative fuel sources, but how can the industry change when the most profitable corporation on the planet (Exxon/Mobil) just happens to be an oil company? The problem is, there's still too much money in oil for anyone in the industry to want to change direction. But for the sake of getting rid of our vulnerable dependence on the finite supply of oil on this planet, not to mention to help the environment, we need to be looking for alternative sources now! If only there was a giant blazing ball of energy up in our sky that we could use for energy...
