This is better than a lot of what's on radio today.

This is the good stuff. No gays and lesbians. No transexuals. No freaks with nose rings No kids with blue or green hair. Just good clean entertainment.

Mayor and Mrs Jeffrey's were such snobs in this episode,but the other woman who introduced Rafe had no problem with him.

Every man needs a wife who has that much love and pride for him. Gets me every time… her eyes. Every woman deserves a man that makes her feel that way.

Nobody has done a better job singing this song. He was born to do it.

Don Knots was the funniest actor ever !

Barney gets Rafe to crack up

So beautiful! What a voice!

Such an amazing voice! My wife and I have watched this show every night for the past 5 years and will probably watch it for the next 20 years. It just never gets old.

One of the best voices l have ever heard.

Rafe would go into Mt Pilot once a month for opera singing lessons (when he warn’t busy moonshinin’)

O Rafe got em, didnt he?

Still so beautiful that it brings me to tears

I sure do love this ray...

That voice really deserved to sell millions of albums and die embarrassingly wealthy.

Amen to that, brother...being from the South I'm proud of it. Jack Prince was an unbelievable talent in the folk ballad genre and will never be forgotten...

I am going to have this song played at my memorial by Mr Jack Prince

Try this; smoke you a doob, and watch Mayberry. Notice how it is the south in the 60s and no one’s black. Notice how Aunt be talks with a British accent. And then here comes Gomer…

Unfortunately, appropriated negro ballad. Nicely done.

Looks like Rafe is really singing this one. ‘Look Down that Lonesome Road’ was an overdub.

Good accompaniment by Andy

I saw this episode,💕❤️

Love this show and this scene

👏👏👏👏👏👏

I enjoy watching this show every morning and every afternoon on TV Land channel ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍

This is talent…Get real 🖕. I’ve seen real singing. Plus sing about the Darkness better. It feels more natural than this creep.

Prince really pulls it off ... and that stuffy mayor played his part well, too. Love this scene.

❤beautiful deep voice ❤

Andy Griffith's character in his breakthrough role was named...Lonsome Rhodes

Andy Griffith with the hymns 👌🏽

That guitar would've exploded at 0:08 😊

Nice song 🤜🤛

It's good advice i should have taken.

So-called "Jack Prince" wasn't even his real name. John Trevathian Upchurch Jr onviously sold-out his birth moniker in the name of 'Hollywood' shallowness, deceit, & greed. In other words, from money-grubbing Agent(s) and or Studio(s), with preconceived notions of greater recognition and better financial gain?! The worst part was the disrespect of parents and family heritage.

Holy MEOW!!!

Look down look down that lonesome road, before you travel on. Look up look up and seek your maker, for Gabriel blows his horn. Weary toting such a load, tredging down that lonesome road. Look down look down that lonesome road, before you travel on. Weary toting such a load, tredging down that lonesome road. Look down look down that lonesome road, before you travel on. 🥹

Wow...

What can i say except that Jack Prince moves me with this, I play guitar and I am told that I can sing,, well not THIS good, I am sure, MAGNIFICENT VOICE !!!!!❤

It took me forever to find this! When you look up "famous Irish song" or "most familiar Irish tune" you just get young people singing sea shanties.

Love the Darling episodes. The Dillards music is some of the best bluegrass ever recorded. Hard to believe Briscoe is just 42 years old here.

Wow

I'll always think of a piano blowing up in a Looney Tunes cartoon when I hear this song.

I love this episode and this song! 'Look dow-own, look dow-own - that lo-onesome ro-oad!'

That version made me cry. God bless.

No one today can touch my crooners...such powerful and beautiful voices

Ever since I had seen the Andy Griffith show back in the day this episode and a few other ones have stuck with me for years and every now and then I like to see the old episodes again with the ones with the songs in them. This Man Has A Great Singing Voice !! I believe there’s another song if I’m not mistaken he sings which is better than this one but they are both Great Songs from this Show ! ❤❤❤

Let me take this time to say The Andy Griffith show is my all-time favorite television show. It has been around more than 60 years and the humor still works because it doesn't involve ridicule, sexual innuendo and because not every line is a forced joke. And because who wouldn't want to live in Mayberry? "Aunt Bea the Crusader" is my favorite episode.

Just watched an episode of Matlock and he was singing this song.

Such a wonderful voice

Such a beautiful melody song so soft great voice thanks so much
