To Bombay a travelling circus came, they brought an

Inteligent elephant and Nellie was her name

One dark night she slipped her iron chain

And off she ran to Hindustan

And was never seen again oooooo



Nellie the elephant pack her trunk and said goodbye to the circus

Off she went with a trumpety trump trump trump trump

New Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and trundled out off the jungle

Off she went with a trumpety trump trump trump trump



The head of the herd was calling far far away

They met one night in the silver light on the road to Mandalay...

Night by night she danced to the circus band

When Nellie was leading the big parade she looked so proud and grand

No more tricks for Nellie to perform

They taught her how to take a bow and she took the crowd by storm..

oooooooooo
