    The Flintstones FAQ provides the lyrics to "(Meet) The Flintstones" and also lists the song's credits. Hoyt S. Curtin wrote the music, and William Hanna and Joseph Barbera wrote the lyrics. Five singers and a 22-man jazz band were used to record the song.

    Personal quotes

    "It's a catchy little tune. Just a simple thing arranged for jazz and singers." - Hoyt Curtin, 1994, in the Los Angeles Times, discussing his 'Flintstones' theme

    Hoyt composed ALOT of stuff: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0006022/

    Flintstones, meet the Flintstones
    They're the modern stone-age family
    From the town of Bedrock
    They're a page right out of history
    Let's ride with the family down the street
    Through the courtesy of Fred's two feet
    When you're with the Flintstones
    Have a yabba-dabba-doo time
    A dabba-doo time
    You'll have a gay old time

    • I think it helps people who might not know the topic...but, with YouTube yanking everything it might end up leaving alot of holes in AB. AB needs to host the videos and claim some kind of educational freedom on things like wiki does.

    • Agreed. That's also why I hate it when people post just the link. They generally say they don't want to steal from the site, but if you copy/paste the relevant parts and also put the link it gives the credit where due and also preserves the info in case the URL changes or the site goes down.
