Goin’ down to Tegridy Farms
Gonna have myself a time
Friendly faces everywhere
Humble folks without temptation
Goin’ down to Tegridy Farms
Gonna leave my woes behind
There’s ample parking day or night
People spouting “Howdy neighbor!”
I’m headin’ down to Tegridy Farms
Gonna see if I can’t unwind
I got some weed and I don’t even know what’s going on
So come on down to Tegridy Farms
And meet some friends of mine
Official Tegridy Intro
Bringing Back “Tegridy”
The Tegridy Farms arc began in *South Park’s* 22nd season when Randy Marsh, fed up with the chaos of modern life and the commercialization of cannabis, moves his family to a farm in the country. The theme song is a direct parody of the show’s original iconic intro, swapping out the familiar bus stop for rural farm vistas and banjo-heavy country instrumentation.
What started as a single episode plot point turned into a multi-season storyline, transforming Randy Marsh from a simple geologist into a “cannabis mogul.” The theme highlights the irony of Randy’s quest for “integrity” (or “tegridy”), as his business ventures often lead to more corruption and absurdity than the city life he left behind. The catchy tune and hillbilly aesthetic have made it one of the most memorable musical shifts in the show’s long history.
