Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer Lyrics

[Intro]

[Chorus]
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

[Verse 1]
She'd been drinkin' too much eggnog
And we'd begged her not to go
But she forgot her medication
And she staggered out the door into the snow
When we found her Christmas mornin'
At the scene of the attack
She had hoof prints on her forehead
And incriminating Claus marks on her back

[Chorus]
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

[Verse 2]
Now we're all so proud of Grandpa
He's been takin' this so well
See him in there watchin' football
Drinkin beer and playin' cards with cousin Mel
It's not Christmas without Grandma
All the family's dressed in black
And we just can't help but wonder:
Should we open up her gifts or send them back?
(Send them back!)

[Chorus]
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

[Verse 3]
Now the goose is on the table
And the pudding made of fig, ah
And the blue and silver candles
That would have just matched the hair in grandma's wig
I've warned all my friends and neighbors
"Better watch out for yourselves
They should never give a license
To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves."

[Chorus]
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa's
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe
(Sing it, Grandpa!)

[Chorus]
Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

[Outro]
Merry Christmas

What has the writer (Randy Brooks) said about this song?

Interesting, amusing analysis…but for the record, let me assure readers that I had never heard of the woman in Minnesota until I read this…and both of my grandfathers died when I was very young, having never related any stories that I used in this song. And finally, the word “runned” never appears i...
