The song that Andy and Peggy sang on the porch is called "Down in the Valley".
The lyrics are: Down in the valley, valley so low Hang your head over Hear the wind blow. Hear the wind blow, dear Hear the wind blow. Hang your head over Hear the wind blow. If you don't love me, Love whom you please. Throw your arms 'round me Give my heart ease. Give my heart ease, dear Give my heart ease. Throw your arms 'round me Give my heart ease. Roses love sunshine Violets love dew Angels in heaven Know I love you Know I love you, dear Know I love you Angels in heaven Know I love you. I used to sing this song to one of my godsons when he was a baby and it always calmed him down and/or got him off to sleep. As a matter of fact, when I stopped singing, he started crying. I guess he had good taste in music, even at a young age. LOL Here are some scenes that make me laugh out loud that no one else has mentioned. >From "Mountain Wedding" - when Ernest T meets Andy and Barney for the first time and Andy says "That Ernest T Bass is a strange and weird character." Briscoe Darling says" Just plain ornery." Barney says "He's a nut." And then Ernest T goes running and jumping away.. >From "The Merchant of Mayberry" - When Barney is telling Andy what he would have said to Ben Weaver. He says "Why don't you go sit in the grocery store so we can all know you're the big cheese." >From "Three Wishes for Opie" - 1. when Helen comes storming up to Andy and yells at him about how she does not like to go to a PTA meeting and find out that she is engaged to the great Sheriff Taylor. She goes on for a minute and then ends with "What really infuriates me is listening to all your friends telling me what a good catch you are. Well, you're not caught yet." And she turns her nose up and storms off. 2. when Andy sees Barney coming and grabs him by the arm and drags him into the courthouse. 3. when Barney, Goober, and Floyd are in the back room at the courthouse with the lights off trying to summon Count Istvan Telecky, especially the part where Barney comes back in the room with the fingerprint set. 4. at the end when Barney has thrown away the fortune telling stuff and they find out that Opie really has gotten his third wish. The look on Barney's face as he pulls the stuff back out of the trashcan is hilarious. Mary Grace Gossage "Gentlemen, I have the following announcement to make. Count Istvan Telecky exists." _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
