With apologies to Jed Clampett:

Come and listen to a story about a man named Al-Sayed
A poor bedouin, barely kept his family fed,
Then one day he was rounding up some food,
And up through the ground came a bubblin crude.

Oil that is, black gold, Saudi Tea

Well the first thing you know Al-Sayed's a millionaire,
Kinfolk said "Al, move away from there"
Said Al Faisaliah is the place you oughta be"
So they loaded up the truck and moved to Riyadhi,

Oasis that is, air conditioning, kumquats on a silver tray, BMW for every day of the week..

Well now its time to say good by to Al and all his kin.
And they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin in.
You're not invited back again to this locality
And there'll be no heapin helpin of their hospitality

Bedouin, that is. Drive a spell, take your wallet out.

Y'all buy lots more gas now, ya hear?
