Lyrics

Well, this is a story of a poor mountain man.

Spoke worse English than Mr. Jackie Chan.

Then one day, he was tendin' to his still,

Heard a hissing sound and his pants began to fill.

Helium.

See-through gold.

Symbol, H-E.

Well, the first thing you know...

Behind the Laughter

"The Ballad of Cletus Spuckler" is a parody of "The Ballad of Jed Clampett", the theme song for The Beverly Hillbillies.
