Richard M. Sherman
Colonel Hathi’s March (The Elephant Song)
[ELEPHANTS]
Hup, two, three, four
Keep it up, two, three, four
Hup, two, three, four
Keep it up, two, three, four

[COLONEL HATHI, spoken]
Company, sound off!

[ELEPHANTS]
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
Hup, two, three, four
Dress it up, two, three, four
By the ranks or single file
Over every jungle mile
Oh, we stamp and crush through the underbrush

[HATHI, JR.]
In the military style!

[ELEPHANTS]
In the military style
[COLONEL HATHI]
Hup, two, three, four
Keep it up, two, three, four
