Out of all the reindeers, you know you're the mastermind
Run-run Rudolph, Santa's way too far behind

Run-run Rudolph, Santa's gotta make it to town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run-run Rudolph, 'cause I'm reelin' like a merry go round

Said Santa to a boy child, what have you been longing for
All I want for christmas is a rock 'n' roll 'lectric guitar C
And then away went Rudolph wizzin' like a shootin' star

Run-run Rudolph, Santa's has to make it in town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run-run Rudolph, reelin' like a merry go round

Run-run Rudolph, Santa's has to make it in town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run-run Rudolph, I'm reelin' like a merry go round

Said Santa to a girl child, what would please you most to get
A little baby doll that can cry, sleep, drink and wet
And then away went Rudolph wizzin' like a sabre jet

Run-run Rudolph, Santa's gotta make it to town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run-run Rudolph, I'm reelin' like a merry go round
