Comments: Theme song for The Beverly Hillbillies TV show and movie, providing the back story for the series. Scoggins was accompanied by bluegrass musicians Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs. When the theme was released as a single, Flatt sang lead vocals instead. Scoggins revisited the song in the 1993 movie version.
