Content
"Elvis and Andy" is an up-tempo novelty song in which the male narrator states that, while his lover is not from the Southern United States, she "likes Elvis / She likes Andy / So she's fine and dandy with me." Of course, this refers to Elvis Presley and Andy Griffith, due to their photos being on the wall behind the sofa in the music video, which was directed by Martin Kahan and premiered in mid-1994.
