When I See an Elephant Fly



When I See an Elephant Fly is a song in Dumbo. The song was sung by Jim Crow and his brothers.

Lyrics
I seen a peanut stand, heard a rubber band I seen a needle that winked its eye But I be done seen 'bout ev'rything When I see a elephant fly

(What d'you say, boy?) I said when I see a elephant fly

I seen a front porch swing, heard a diamond ring I seen a polka-dot railroad tie But I be done seen 'bout ev'rything When I see a elephant fly

(I saw a clothes horse, he r'ar up and buck) (And they tell me that a man made a vegetable truck) (I didn't see that, I only heard) (But just to be sociable, I'll take your word)

(I heard a fireside chat, I saw a baseball bat) (And I just laughed till I thought I'd die) But I be done seen 'bout ev'rything When I see a elephant fly

Well I be done seen 'bout ev'rything When I see a elephant fly (With the wings) When I see an elephant fly
