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
Chorus
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 ran with a trumpety trump, trump, trump, trump
Night by night she danced to the circus band
When Nellie led 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
(Chorus)
The head of the herd was calling far far away
They met one night on a moonlit night on the road to Mandalay
(Chorus)
