Up out of the jungle
Up into the sky
Up over the mountains
Ten thousand feet high
Then down from the mountains
And down to the sea
Went Horton the elephant
Egg, nest and tree
Egg, nest and tree
Egg, nest and tree
They loaded the wagon
Right onto a ship
Out over the ocean
And ooh, what a trip
Oh, rolling and tossing
And sick as could be
Just a seasick elephant
Egg, nest and tree
Nest and tree
Egg, nest and tree
Nest and tree
After bobbing around
For two weeks like a cork
Egg, nest and tree
They landed at last
In the town of New York
Egg, nest and tree
He was wet, he was tired
And hungry and cold
Egg, nest and tree
Then Horton was taken to auction
And sold to the man from the circus
Sold, sold, sold
Egg, nest and tree
