Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
John Denver Lyrics

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Introducing the singer of the story, Rudolph, the reindeer with a unique feature.

Had a very shiny nose
His nose was highly noticeable because of its shine.

And if you ever saw it
If you've seen his nose before,

You would even say it glows
You'd describe it as radiant and bright.

All of the other reindeer
The rest of the reindeer in the story.

Used to laugh and call him names
They used to make fun of Rudolph and call him derogatory terms.

They never let poor Rudolph
They refused to let Rudolph participate in any of their activities.

Join in any reindeer games
He was left out of all games played by the rest of the reindeer.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
During a specific Christmas Eve characterized by a thick mist.

Santa came to say
Santa Claus approached Rudolph to speak to him.

Rudolph, with your nose so bright
Santa noticed Rudolph's shiny nose.

Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?
Santa requested Rudolph to help him with his sleigh tonight.

Then how the reindeer loved him
After Rudolph's act of bravery, the rest of the reindeer began to appreciate him.

And they shouted out with glee
They expressed their joy through yelling and cheering.

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Again emphasizing Rudolph's unique feature and his identity.

You'll go down in history
He will be remembered and commemorated for his contribution to the Christmas tradition.
