ABOUT THIS SONG It was apparent in 1995 that the old Gene Autry song, Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer, needed an update. I found a good beat and proceeded to do a 40 year old white man rap...perhaps you do not know the true story of how Rudolph came to be the beacon he was on that fateful night. But soon you will...fortunately Santa knew how to write up a good contract...otherwise Christmas would have been cancelled a long, long time ago. So, listen and learn...do your best to keep from boppin' along. And please remember, this was my first and last attempt at doing a rap song...there is truth to the generational thing. Listen now as Rudolph tells the real story... |

SONG LYRICS: RAPPIN' RUDOLPH Hey, hey my name is Rudolph I pull ol’ Santa’s sleigh When I hear “ho” I turn on my nose And we all dash away It wasn’t always like this This leading scene is new Yeah people laughed Had names for me and said, “Hey Dude you’re rude!” I didn’t let that bug me I just went on my way Yeah, things were cool I lived alone Until that fateful day The Winter was so foggy You couldn’t even See your hand The elves they freaked Old Santa screamed The reindeer made demands They said, “We ain’t goin’ Nowhere ‘Cause we can’t even see You guarantee a trip that’s Safe And man this sleigh will leave!” So Santa sat and puzzled He didn’t even have no way No radar screens No ESP To guide his groovy sleigh It happened I was walking Like a vision through the trees My nose was on The path was bright When Santa turned to see me He said, “Hey, hey there Rudolph! Won’t you guide my sleigh?” I said, “You must be kiddin, Jack… But how much will you pay? We talked of long vacations Of benefits and dreams Bartered with the other cats Until they said, “Yippee!” Now I’m not one for braggin’ But whoa you shouldda seen My nose aglow just lit the sky And we made history So that’s my song and story To all you boys and girls Rappin’ Rudolph sends you joy And peace to fill your world Go Rudolph, go Rudolph… © 2003.Music for Every Soul.
