Songs from the Hooterverse

Jed Clampett is a millionaire!
Lived a simple life without a care!
Found oil in his bottom land,
Sold the leases and now he’s a wealthy man!

Kate Bradley runs the Shady Rest!
Her hospitality’s the best!
Three daughters and her Uncle Joe:
One old codger and pretty maids in a row!

(nih nih, nih nit nit!) The smog!
(nih nih, nih nit nit!) The dog!
(nih nih, nih nit nit!) Jethro!
(nih nih, nih nit nit!) Bedloe!
You’ll have a laugh, a hoot and a half!
Paul Henning’s mind’s aglow!

(nih nih, nih nit nit, nit nit!)

Time to book your reservations at the Shady Rest.
When you’re ready for relaxin’ come and put them to the test.
They roll out the carpet when the Cannonball arrives;
It’s on such service that the hotel business thrives!
Nice rooms! Scenic views!

When you first check in Kate will greet you at the desk,
And then Uncle Joe will escort you to your nest.
When the dinner bell is rung come a-rushin’ down the stairs,
For the best scratch cookin’ and down-home country fare!
Fried chicken! Apple pie!

(intermezzo)

And now it’s time that we checked in on Ollie and his bride.
They left the bustling city for the quiet countryside.
He tried his hand at tillin’ but he couldn’t raise a crop!
He may be a fine lawyer but at farmin’ he’s a flop!
Miserable, he is! Epic fail! Get those weeds, now!
Ya best stock up, now, ya hear?
