Leroy, The Redneck Reindeer Joe Diffie
E A E
You've all heard about Rudolph and his nose
E B7
But I'll tell you a Christmas tale that never has been told
E A7 E
Well, you may think you've heard it all but you ain't heard yet
A B7 E
About that crazy Christmas that the North pole can't forget
E A E
Rudolph was under the weather he had to call in sick
E B7
So he got on the horn to his cousin Leroy who lived out in the sticks
E A E
He said Santa's really counting on me and I hate to pass the buck
>A E B7 E
Leroy said Hey I'm on my way and he jumped in his pick-up truck
>E A E
When Leroy got to the North Pole all the reindeer snickered and laughed
E B7
They never seen a deer in overalls and a John Deere Tractor hat
E
But Santa stepped in and said
A E
Just calm down cause you all got a job to do
A E B7 E
Like it or not, Leroy's in charge and he's gonna be leading you
CHORUS:
E
And it was Leroy, the red neck reindeer
A E
Hooked to the front of the sleigh
E B7
Delivering toys to all the good ole boys and girls along the way
E A E
He's just a down home party animal, two stepping across the sky
A E B7 E
He mixed jingle bells with a rebel yell and made histroy that night
E A E
Before that night was over Leroy had changed their tune
E
He had them scootin' a hoof on every single roof
B7
By the light of a neon moon
E
Santa wrapped his bag with a Dixie flag
A E
He was having the time of his life
E
You can hear his call Merry Christmas y'all
B7 E
And y'all, y'all a good night.
chorus repeat the last line in the chorus to end.
