This is my favorite Mayberry parody. I don't know who the artist is, but they did a great job of matching the sound of the original tune. They also included sound clips from The Show, such as Barney saying "That's impersonating an officer! That's a real serious offense!" This was on an old cassette that one of you gave me at a Mayberry event twenty years ago.
