[Answer] Who got run over by a reindeer (in the classic Christmas song)?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question " Who got run over by a reindeer (in the classic Christmas song)? "



...

"Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" is a novelty Christmas song. Written by Randy Brooks, the song was originally performed by the husband-and-wife duo of Elmo Shropshire and Patsy Trigg in 1979.

The lyrics tell the story of a grandmother celebrating Christmas Eve with her family when she ventures out into a snowstorm while drunk on eggnog, despite everyone beseeching her not to. She is found the next day, trampled; Santa Claus and his reindeer are determined to be the culprits when "incriminating Claus marks" are found on her neck. Christmas dinner otherwise goes on as normal, with a centerpiece of roast goose, figgy pudding for dessert, and candles that match Grandma's wig. In closing, the singer warms listeners to "better watch out for yourselves," because "a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves" is unfit to carry a driver's license.
