Johnny Marks wrote the song Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer in 1949. It was based on his brother-in-law Robert L. May's 1939 book of the same name.
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose. And if you ever saw him, you would even say it glows. All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names. They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games. Then one foggy Christmas Eve Santa came to say: "Rudolph with your nose so bright, won't you guide my sleigh tonight?" Then all the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, you'll go down in history!
Hermey the elf wanted to be a dentist in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
