There's a similar one down south:
"Farmer? Does this road go to town?"
"Don't know."
"Well, where does it go to?"
"Don't know."
"Well, you don't know much, do you?"
"I ain't lost."
The alternate ending -- after the "don't know" --
"Farmer, you ain't far from a fool, are you?"
"Just about three feet."

Another dumb yankee joke:
A yankee walks into a convenience store and figgure's he'll change his fake
$6 bill here for some real cash, since the hillbillies are so dumb. He
walks in: "Hey, Bubba! Can you break this $6 bill for me?"
Bubba takes the bill, opens the cash register, and hands him two $3's.
