Great-Grandma Got Run Over Lyrics

Great-Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Heading home with presents Christmas Eve

We thought her luck would last forever

But Santa's crew had something up their sleeve

Great-Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Well it runs in the family don't you know

It skips two generations then lands on the third

Now my daughter's down in the snow oh no!

Grandma's been drinking her sherry

With a wink and a laugh so sly

She slipped out the back door

And said "Santa catch me if you can let's see fatboy fly!"

Great-Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Well it runs in the family don't you know

It skips two generations then lands on the third

Now my daughter's down in the snow oh no!

When the reindeer charged Grandma screamed

But the snowplow didn't hear a thing

The prints were deep and her body was flat

But you know it's not Christmas without that!

Great-Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Well it runs in the family don't you know

It skips two generations then lands on the third

Now my daughter's down in the snow oh no!

Now my daughter got run over by a reindeer

And we think she made ol' Santa mad

She wrote him a letter full of sass and demands

Guess the big guy doesn't like a kid that bad

Great-Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Well it runs in the family don't you know

It skips two generations then lands on the third

Now my daughter's down in the snow oh no!

So if you see a reindeer

Keep your distance and be smart

If you're near our family

Best avoid that sleigh and start to park!

Great-Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Well it runs in the family don't you know

It skips two generations then lands on the third

Now my daughter's down in the snow oh no!

Yeah great-grandma daughter it's the family way

If you walk outside you might get sleighed

But don't worry we'll survive—we've seen it before

Those reindeer come knocking and we hit the floor!
