What Happened in the Town of Gosh
(Gosh is a well-known town in India.)
There is an elephant far away,
In the jungles of India, flowery and gay;
This elephant leads his tribe through the wood,
To find all the spinach to eat that is good.
In the jungles of India, flowery and gay;
This elephant leads his tribe through the wood,
To find all the spinach to eat that is good.
He leads away from the haunts of men
All young elephants in his ken.
All young elephants in his ken.
For once his great-uncle came too near
To the town of Gosh,
Men cut off his rear,
And took him to Barnum all forlorn,
And Barnum fed him pop and popcorn,
And put a gold earring in one ear.
To the town of Gosh,
Men cut off his rear,
And took him to Barnum all forlorn,
And Barnum fed him pop and popcorn,
And put a gold earring in one ear.
