Out of all the reindeer you know you’re the mastermind
Run, run rudolph, randalph’s not too far behind
Run, run rudolph, santa’s got to make it to town
Randalph he can hurry, he can take the freeway down.
And away went rudolph a-whizzing 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 away went rudolph a-whizzing like a shooting star
Run, run rudolph, santa’s got to make it to town
Can’t you make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
And away went rudolph a-whizzing like a merry-go-round
Said santa to a girl child what would you like most to get?
I want a little baby doll that can cry, scream and wet
And away went rudolph a-whizzing like a saber jet
Run, run rudolph, run, run rudolph, a-running like a son-of-a-gun
Jimi Hendrix might be the Master of the Stratocaster, but, Chuck Berry is The Wizard of the Gibson 335! This tune is basic, but bruisin'! This one goes out to Keith Richards, Brian Setzer, Jeff Beck, and Les Paul (in Heaven)! JUMP ON IT, CHUCK! Merry Christmas 2011 to all!
There have been a hell of a lot of great Christmas songs and this is certainly one of them - and in the middle it has one of the best guitar riffs ever!

I remember when Chuck Berry was first on TV I was about 5 or 6 I was born in 1950 and I saw him on American Bandstand a time when you actually had to get up and turn the dial to change the Volume and Channel I also used to listen to him on my little transistor radio coming home from school or from the drug store getting a milkshake maybe a coke and I would read a comic book my favorite was Fantastic Four
