Christmas #3: Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer (cover)

A humorous Christmas song written by American singer-songwriter Randy Brooks in 1977(    • Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer   ), then first performed and made famous in 1979 by the couple and country duo Elmo Shropshire and Patsy Trigg, a.k.a. Elmo & Patsy:    • Elmo & Patsy - Grandma Got Run Over By A R...   The version I first heard, though, and clearly the best of the three, is Celtic folk band The Irish Rovers' cover, from their 1999 album "Songs of Christmas":    • Grandma Got Run-over by a Reindeer   Une chanson de Noël humoristique écrite par le chansonnier américain Randy Brooks en 1977 (    • Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer   ), puis interprétée et popularisée en 1979 par le couple et duo country Elmo Shropshire et Patsy Trigg, alias Elmo & Patsy :    • Elmo & Patsy - Grandma Got Run Over By A R...   Cependant, la version que j'ai entendue en premier, et de loin la meilleure des trois, est celle du groupe folk celtique The Irish Rovers, extraite de leur album "Songs of Christmas" (1999) :    • Grandma Got Run-over by a Reindeer   Lyrics / Paroles: [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 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] 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? [Chorus] 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]
