Texas toilet starts gushing oil

Check out this story that Jackson sent. Apparently the tale of the Beverly Hillbillies has some truth to it.

Remember?


Come ‘n 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 come a bubblin’ crude

Oil, that is, black gold, Texas tea

Well, the first thing you know, old Jed’s a millionaire

Kin folk said, Jed, move away from there

Said, Californy is the place you oughta be

So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly

Hills, that is, swimmin’ pools, movie stars

Well, now it’s time to say goodbye 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, set a spell, take your shoes off

Y’all come back now, hear?
