Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Songtext
von Lena Horne

rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose
and if you ever saw it
well, you′d have to say it glows

all of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names
they wouldn't let poor rudolph
play 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
and they shouted out with glee
rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
goin' down in history


rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose
and if you ever saw it
well, you'd have to say it glows

all of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names
they wouldn′t let poor rudolph
play 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
and they shouted out with glee
rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
goin' down in history

poor rudolph, what a shiner
brightens up the whole darn sky
poor rudolph, looks like a miner
prancin′ across the sky

hoo-de-dee, baa-da-dee-doo-bedee
baa-baa-ba-doodle-ee-dee-na!
