Single de Noël de l’année 1978, ce titre, écrit par Johnny Marks et Marvin Brodie, est surtout connu pour sa version par Chuck BERRY.
Sur le 45 tours sorti à l’époque, on retrouve en face B le classique de Jimmy Cliff : THEY HARDER THEY COME.
Joyeux Noël à tous !
Run, run Rudolph, Randalph ain’t too far behind Run, run Rudolph, Santa’s got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run, run Rudolph ’cause I’m reelin’ like a merry-go-round Said Santa to a boy child, « What have you been longing for? »
All I want for Christmas is a Rock and Roll electric guitar
And then away went Rudolph, whizzing like a shooting star
Run, run Rudolph, Santa’s got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run, run Rudolph, reelin’ like a merry-go-round
Run, run Rudolph, Santa’s got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run, run Rudolph, I’m reelin’ like a merry-go-round
Said Santa to a girl child, « What would please you most to
get? »
A little baby doll that can cry, sleep, drink and wet
And then away went Rudolph, whizzing like a Saber jet
Run, run Rudolph, Santa’s got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run, run Rudolph I’m reelin’ like a merry-go-round
Ah non, ce soir j'peux pas, j'ai concert !
