ANDY

When seeking peace in normal life
where can we go now?
In living sans turmoil and strife
ol' Andy showed us how

Another childhood icon gone
Mayberry flags fly at half mast
in mourning for their favorite son
who this morning slipped into the past

Should we need a lawyer's skill
we'll have to look elsewhere
Mattlock's buried on yon hill
no more objections to declare

Never heard a scandalous story
a humble man who had not much to say
now on his way to final glory
Andy Griffith passed away today
