Ferlin Husky Lyrics for Song: Eli The Camel
 Lyrics for Album: Wings of a Dove [Hilltop] [1971]
 
 
 
 35755>ELI, THE CAMEL
 
 
 
 Now, there's an old brown camel on a cigarette pack
 
 He's a-waiting for his master but he ain't come back
 
 Been standin' there for years in the same old place
 
 With the same old look upon his old long face
 
 
 
 (CHORUS)
 
 Eli, the camel, he never gets a drink
 
 I wonder what old Eli thinks
 
 Standing on the front of that cigarette pack
 
 Eli, the camel with the hump upon his back
 
 
 
 Now, I have often wondered what his master did
 
 When he went behind that big pyramid
 
 Some say he got a sunstroke and the old man died
 
 But, I think he's at the hotel on the other side
 
 
 
 He probably found a harem and he moved on in
 
 Forgot all about his faithful friend
 
 
 
 Standing on the front of that cigarette pack
 
 Eli, the camel with the hump upon his back
 
 
 
 (CHORUS)
 
 
 
 He never gets no loving and he don't have any fun
 
 He keeps right on a-standing in the burning sun
 
 Standing all the time on that cigarette pack
 
 Eli, the camel with the hump upon his back
 
 
 
 If old Eli could talk, well, I'll bet my boots to you
 
 He could tell the world a thing or two
 
 He's been all around the world and back
 
 Riding on the front of that cigarette pack
 
 
 
 (CHORUS)
 
 
 
 E-E-E-E-li
