Colonel Hathi's March (the Elephant Song) Lyrics

Richard M Sherman Colonel Hathi's March (the Elephant Song)

Spoken:
Hup 2, 3, 4
Keep it up 2, 3, 4
Company sound off!
Sung:
Oh, the aim of our patrol
Is a question rather droll
For to march and drill
over field and hill
Is a military goal!
Is a military goal!
Spoken:
Hup 2, 3, 4
Dress it up 2, 3, 4
Hup 2, 3, 4
Dress it up 2, 3, 4
Sung:
By the ranks or single file
Over every jungle mile
Oh we stamp and crush
Through the underbrush
In a military style!
In a military style!
Spoken:
Hup 2, 3, 4
Keep it up 2, 3, 4
