Sabu Visits the Twin Cities Alone (Live) lyrics

by

John Prine


[Verse 1]
The movie wasn't really doin' so hot
Said the new producer to the old big shot
It's dyin' on the edge of the great midwest
Sabu must tour or forever rest

[Chorus]
Hey look ma, here comes the elephant boy
Bundled all up in his corduroy
Headed down south toward Illinois
From the jungles of East St. Paul

[Verse 2]
His manager sat in the office alone
Starin' at the numbers on the telephone
Wonderin' how a man could send a child actor
To visit in the land of the wind chill factor

[Chorus]
Hеy look ma, here comes thе elephant boy
Bundled all up in his corduroy
Headed down south toward Illinois
From the jungles of East St. Paul

[Verse 3]
Sabu was sad, the whole tour stunk
The airlines lost the elephant's trunk
The roadie got the rabies and the scabies and the flu
They were low on morale, but they were high on
[Chorus]
Hey look ma, here comes the elephant boy
Bundled all up in his corduroy
Headed down south toward Illinois
From the jungles of East St. Paul

[Outro]
From the jungles of East St. Paul
From the jungles of East St. Paul
From the jungles of East St. Paul
