Nellie the Elephant (1984 Version)

To Bombay a travelling circus came
They brought an intelligent 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

Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and trundled back to the jungle
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump

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

Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and trundled back to the jungle
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump

Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and trundled back to 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

Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and trundled back to the jungle
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump

Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and trundled back to the jungle
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump trump trump
