All right.

Whoah, listen to a story 'bout a man named Jed.
A poor mountaineer, he kept his family fed.
And then one day, he was shootin' at some food,
An' up through the ground come a bubblin' crude.
(A bub-bub-bubblin' crude.)
Bub-bub-bub-bubblin' crude.

We-we-well, the first thing you know, old Jed's a millionaire.
The kinfolk said: "Jed, move away from there."
He said: "California is the place you oughta be."
So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly.
(B-B-B-Beverly.)
B-B-B-Beverly.

Instrumental Break.

I said a hip hop, the hippie, the hippie.
To the hip hip hop, a-you don't stop the rock it,
To the bang, bang boogie,
Say up jumped the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat.

Now what you hear is not a test, I'm rappin' to the beat.
See I am wonder mike and I brought two friends along.
And next on the mike is my man, Hank.
C'mon, Hank, sing that song.
Check it out, I'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a,
And the rest is f-l-y.
You see, I go by the name of Casanova,
For these reasons, I'll tell ya why.
I said a, hotel motel holiday inn,
I say if your girl starts actin' up, then you take the friend
