   Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer
          Johnny Marks, 1949







You know Dasher and Dancer
   and Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen,
But do you recall
   the most famous reindeer of all?








Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer, 
   had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw it
   you would 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 all the reindeer loved him
   as they shouted out with glee:
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer, 
   you'll go down in history.
