Leroy the redneck reindeer

Well you've all heard the story...
About Rudolph and his nose.
But I'll tell you a Christmas tale that never has been told.
Well you may think you've heard it all,
But you ain't heard nothin' yet.
About that crazy Christmas that the North Pole can't forget.

Well Rudolph was under the weather,
He had to call in sick.
So he got on the horn to his cousin Leroy
Who lived out in the sticks.
He said, "Santa's really countin' on me, and I hate to pass the buck."
Leroy said, "Hey I'm on my way", and he jumped in his pickup truck.
When Leroy got to the North Pole,
All the reindeer snickered and laughed.
They'd never seen a deer in overalls
And a John Deere tractor hat.
But Santa stepped in and said "Just calm down,
'Cause we've all got a job to do, and like it or not
Leroy's in charge and he's gonna be leadin' you."

[Chorus]
And it was Leroy The Redneck Reindeer!
Hooked to the front of the sleigh
Deliverin' toys to all the good ol' boys and girls along the way.
He's just a down-home, party animal
Two steppin' across the sky
He mixed Jingle Bells with a rebel yell
And made history that night.

Before that night was over, Leroy had changed their tune.
He had 'em scootin' a hoof on every single roof
By the light of a neon moon.
Santa wrapped his bag with a dixie flag,
He was havin' the time of his life.
You could hear him call, "Merry Christmas y'all
And to all of y'all a good night."

[Repeat Chorus]

He mixed Jingle Bells with a rebel yell,
And made history that night.
