Lyrics Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer - Perry Como

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose,
And if you ever saw it,
You could even say it glows.
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names;
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve,
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee,
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,
You'll go down in history."

< instrumental break >

You know Dasher an' Dancer,
An' Prancer an' Vixen,
Comet an' Cupid, an' Donner an' Blitzen,
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?

< instrumental break >

Then one foggy Christmas Eve,
Santa came to say:
"Why, Rudolph with your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee,
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,
You'll go down, down, down, down, down,
In history."

Johnny Marks, 1949
