Lyrics

(F)Grand ma got run o ver by a rein deer

walk ing home from our house Christ mas (Bb)Eve.

You can say there’s no such thing as (F)San ta,

but (Gm)as for me and (C7)grand pa, we be (F)lieve!

(CN.C.)She’d been drink ing too much (C)egg nog,

and we begged her not to go.

But she for got her me di (Bb)ca tion,

and she (Gm)stag gered out the (C7)door in to the (F)snow.

When we found her Christ mas (Am)morn ing

at the scene of the at tack,

she had hoof prints on her (Bb)fore head

and in (Gm)crim i nat ing (C7)claw marks on her (F)back!

(F)Grand ma got run o ver by a rein deer

walk ing home from our house Christ mas (Bb)Eve.

You can say there’s no such thing as (F)San ta,

but (Gm)as for me and (C7)grand pa, we be (F)lieve!

(CN.C.)Now the goose is on the (C)ta ble,

and the pud ding made of fig.

But And the blue and sil ver (Bb)can dles

that would (Gm)just ’ve matched the (C7)hair in grand ma’s (F)wig.

I’ve warned all my friends and (Am)neigh bours,

“Bet ter watch out for your selves.”

They should nev er give a (Bb)li cence

to a (Gm)man who drives a (C7)sleigh and plays with (F)back!

(F)elves!

- lieve!
