letra de 21 elephants - travels with brindle

Loading...

barnum got the telegram on his way from terre haute
brooklynites were frightened by the bridge
news had made the headlines of stampedes on the promenade
suspension wires dancing in the wind
he let the paper fall away
an image sparkled in his eyes
his smile grew like nightshade ‘neath his brim

[chorus]
21 elephants join the parade
21 eles sing roebling’s repute
21 elephants line up to make
a 21-trunk salute

jumbo leaned his head out the window
getting a breath of fresh air
his ears waggled in scotty’s direction
as barnum told him of his great idea
scotty was worried that such a parade
would bring the whole edifice down
jumbo placed his trunk on scotty’s left shoulder
ready to take a bow

[chorus]

finally the day arrived
elephants lined up beside
the banks of the east river
a-sparkle in the sun
crowds -ssembled drew a cheer
when they saw jumbo at the rear
he raised his head and shook his ears
they knew he had nothing to fear

- travels with brindle
