Andy quit sheriffin' and went to law school. Became a pretty good defense lawyer.
Barney let his freak flag fly, moved to California and managed that apartment complex.
Gomer gave the gas stationed to his cousin, Goober, joined the Marines, became a singer. Missed him at this year's Indy 500.
Opie got adopted by that Yankee family, went to film school and made some good movies.
Like talkin' about dead relatives and the memory of old friends.
As a kid, any episode with the Dillards or Ernest T. Bass or Otis or Floyd.
Andy didn't mind taking a little step to the side to let others take the spotlight.
RIP, Mr. Griffith.
