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
oooooooooooooooooo...
[Chorus:]
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk
and said goodbye to the circus
off she rode with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk
and trundled off to the jungle
off she rode 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
oooooooooooooooooo...
[Chorus x2]
The head of the heard was calling far far away
they met one night in silver light
on the road to Mandalay
oooooooooooooooooo...
[Chorus x2]
