Festive Lyrics Revisited 2 - Grandma Drank Too Much Sherry by Susie Field




Inspired by Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer by Elmo & Patsy


Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve.

We said we would walk home with her

Wouldn’t wait, she just wanted to leave.


It was Rudolf who ran over Grandma

She was lying in the road.

Santa was going crazy

When he saw his upended load.

The elves all rushed to help Grandma

Settled her in the sleigh.

They gave her a glass of sherry

It seemed to make her day.


The reindeers decided to join in the fun

Time for making merry.

Santa was at a loss for what to do

As he watched them necking the sherry.

No chance of saving the presents now

They were covered in falling snow,

He wished he could quickly make his escape

But where on earth would he go?


He decided to join the party

It seemed to be in full swing.

Grandma was having the time of her life

She’d even started to sing.

Santa just loved karaoke

He thought he had quite a voice.

Everyone now was shouting his name

Looked like he had no choice.


Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve.

We said we would walk home with her

Wouldn’t wait, she just wanted to leave.
