Get the Texas teamug. Made famous by the old sixties TV show, "The Beverly Hillbillies." The theme song goes:
Gonna tell you a story 'bout a man named Jed / poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed/ then one day he was shootin' up some food/ and up from the ground come bubblin' crude/ oil that is, black gold, Texas Tea."
