plowboyes's video: Sabu visits the twin cities alone John Prine cover

John writes: " I was flying out of Minneapolis-St.Paul,towards the end of a tour. I had this vision of the look on Sabu the Elephant Boy's face in the old jungle movies; he always had this dazed and confused look. And I saw myself like that in the mirror. I just looked like "what am I doing here?" When things get really crazy for me or confusing, I usually turn to humor and try explain the situation in a song". Sabu visits the twin cities alone. The movie wasn't really going 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 sitting in his office all alone just staring at the numbers on his telephone he's wondering how a man could send a child actor out in the city with the wind chill factor. 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. 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.... 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.
