Andy Griffith Dead at 86. God Bless you Bro'. You gave us all many, many years of enjoyment. Rest in Peace.Well, now, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at The Fishin' Hole,
We may not get a bite all day, but don't you rush away.
What a great place to rest your bones and mighty fine for skippin' stones,
You'll feel fresh as a lemonade, a-settin' in the shade.
Whether it's hot, whether it's cool, oh what a spot for whistlin' like a fool.
What a fine day to take a stroll and wander by The Fishin' Hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.
We'll have no need to call the roll when we get to The Fishin' Hole,
There'll be you, me, and Old Dog Trey, to doodle time away.
If we don't hook a perch or bass, we'll cool our toes in dewy grass,
Or else pull up a weed to chaw, and maybe set and jaw.
Hangin' around, takin' our ease, watchin' that hound a-scratchin' at his fleas.
Come on, take down your fishin' pole and meet me at The Fishin' Hole,
I can't think of a better way to pass the time o' day.

A legend. The guy churned out a lot of good work leaving behind an awesome legacy. Loved his stuff as kid.

I know, right? I still love the Andy Griffith show. There is a TV station near me that runs one of these every day at 12:30 PM right after their noon news. If I'm not doing anything important on a particular day, I turn it on and it's still fun to watch. I bet I've seen every episode 8 or 10 times by now.
