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 rode with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk
and trumbled 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 tooked
to crowd by storm
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and
said goodbye to the circus
off she road with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk
and trumbled off to the jungle
off she rode with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
The head of the heard was calling far far away
they meet one night in silver light
on the road to Mandalay
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 trumbled off to the jungle
off she rode with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump

I believe it's called 'Revenge for the Llama Song'.......

Mel... This is great! My Grand daughter Yoody, the 5 year old going on 6 in May, loves elephants. She even named our big red Ford Van, Elevant!
She will love Nellie. I'll show her the post when she gets up.
So, thanks for that.
Llamas, elephants. You know, you'll be singing a lot of songs to that little Bug of yours. Itsy Bitsy Spiders, The Cat Came Back, Bingo Was His Name. You'll be having those things stuck in your head forever! I do.
Peace.

As soon as I saw the RSS feed I said, Of course it's not your fault.
Then I read the post.
Well it's still not your fault of course.
Well...I have no idea what this means, but I LOVED it!
"Nellie the elephant packed her trunk
and trumbled off to the jungle
off she rode with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump"
And I'm going to be singing this song all night long.
Thanks, Mel!
