Sabu Visits The Twin Cities Alone Lyrics by John Prine

Sabu Visits The Twin Cities Alone Lyrics

    The movie wasn't really doing so hot
    Said the new producer to the old big shot
    Its dying on the edge of the great midwest
    Sabu must tour or forever rest.

    Hey look ma
    Here comes the elephant boy
    Bundled all up in his corduroy
    Headed down south towards illinois
    From the jungles of east st. paul.

    His manager sat in the office alone
    Staring at the numbers on the telephone
    Wondering how a man could send a child actor
    To visit in the land of the wind chill factor.
    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 was low on morale but they was high on.
