Album: Classic Children's Favourites (1956). Get the Sheet Music License This Song. songfacts ®. As might be deduced from its title, "Nellie The Elephant" is a novelty song, the main novelty being in the claim that she packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus. Presumably she left in a taxi after making a trunk call to a local cab firm. The song was written by Ralph Butler and Peter Hart. According to Butler's obituary in the London Times of April 9, 1969, it was a song that was not entirely out of character

Mandy Miller (born Carmen Isabella Miller, 23 July 1944) is an English child actress who made a number of films in the 1950s and is probably best remembered for her recording of the 1956 song "Nellie the Elephant". She was christened Carmen but called Mandy by her family. Her career tended to involve serious acting roles rather than comedy, even in her first small part in The Man in the White Suit, where she was a sad-faced little girl who helped Alec Guinness escape his pursuers.
