Just watched the Beverly Hillbillies episode with them. Had to come here and hear the whole song. I gotta second what nasty5 said up there.

Granny was right! This is country music! She never spit, always swallowed. Snuff that is.

Thanks for posting. Good version of the song. But if you get a chance check out the original Mercury recording (probably about 1949). Earl's backup on that is absolutely jaw-dropping. He didn't get as adventurous in this, but it's still great picking by Earl nonetheless.

@RidgeRunnerJC Oh yeah, he really gets up the neck on the Mercury recording, love it.
