lyrics
[Verse 1]
Out of all the reindeer you know you’re the mastermind, yeah
Run, run Rudolph, Randolph's not too far behind
[Chorus]
Ooh, run, run Rudolph, Santa’s got to make it to town, yeah
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Santa, make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Run, run Rudolph, wheeling like a merry-go-round, ooh
[Verse 2]
Said Santa to a boy child "what have you been longing for?" Yeah
"All I want for Christmas is a rock and roll electric guitar" Yeah
And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a shooting star, ooh
[Chorus]
Said run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Santa, make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down, yeah
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Run, run Rudolph, wheeling like a merry-go-round, yeah yeah
[Chorus]
Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Santa, make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Run, run Rudolph, wheeling like a merry-go-round
[Verse 3]
Said Santa to a girl child "what would you like most to get?"
"I want a little baby doll that can cry, sleep, drink and wet"
And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a saber jet
[Chorus]
Run, run Rudolph, Santa’s got to make it to town
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Yeah yeah, Santa, make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Oh, run, run Rudolph, wheeling like a merry-go-round, yeah
Run, run Rudolph, Santa’s got to make it to town
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Santa, make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
(Run, run Rudolph, run, run Rudolph)
Hey, run, run Rudolph, wheeling like a merry-go-round
[Outro]
Oh, run Rudolph, wheeling like a merry-go-round
Run, run Rudolph, wheeling like a merry-go-round
