Is it me or does Ernest T. Bass look like Phil Collins? I know he doesn't sing like him.

Found this on a website --"Old Aunt Maria etc etc" was a jumping rope poem from my wife’s childhood in Dequeen, Arkansas. I can’t find the script but I think it went "Obedia jump in the fi-ah." Somehow it got to be "Old Aunt Maria" on the screen.
If I had known that the show would live this long (and that I would live this long) I would’ve paid better attention.
All best to you and yours, Everett Greenbaum

After a long day at work this clip always puts my attitude right. Ernest T. is the man.

Actually they say that the style of music called "Rap" derived its name from the "Blondie" song, "Rapture". "They" meaning music scholars. But that doesn't mean Ernest T. Bass isn't any less entertaining for what he is! I've seen this episode recently, by the way. I only found my way here because I felt like searching for, "The Darlings vs. The Clampetts". Then I was going to do, "Ernest T. Bass vs. Granny Clampett". Thanks for posting your clips!

If you are familiar with Wikia.. check out the Andy Griffith Show Wiki. It's like Wikipedia, but it's Wikia. It's a VERY awesome site, where me and others have worked so hard to make it the go-to guide for all things TAGS (and R.F.D and Gomer Pyle USMC). It's the Mayberry. Wikia. Com (not the Wikipedia site) but the WIkia one. Stop in, and see all the hard work we've done! :)

Ernest was the Ignatz ( the brick throwing mouse ) of Mayberry.
Ernest T: Awright, listen... (He accompanies himself by slapping a large can.) Old Aunt Mariah, jump in the fi-ah, Fire too hot, jump in the pot, Pot too black, jump in the crack, Crack too high, jump in the sky, Sky too blue, jump in canoe, Canoe too shallow, jump in the tallow, Tallow too soft, jump in the loft, Loft too rotten, jump in the cotton, Cotton so white she stay there all night.
