Our fleet-footed friend from the north Who lights Santa's way through the darkness As he drives his sleigh back and forth But there's someone else we should mention If we want the whole story told He carried the first gift of Christmas More precious than diamonds or gold Nestor was a donkey who seldom laughed or played 'Cause no one evey used him in the stable where he stayed And all the camels teased him, the other donkeys too They said, look at little Nestor, there's nothing he can do Look at little Nestor, his ears hang to his knees When he looks at his reflection, ears are all he sees Nestor's heart was broken and his eyes were full of tears If only there was somethin' he could do about his ears One dark night two strangers gave Nestor a surprise They chose him from all others for they loved his gentle eyes A man was called by Joseph, Mary was his bride She needed help to Bethlehem and Nestor's back to ride They travelled through the desert but hadn't gone too far When winter clouds no longer let them see their guiding star But Nestor learned a secret as he listened to the breeze And the angels gave directions to the ears that touched his knees Look at little Nestor, his ears hang to his knees When he looks at his reflection, ears are all he sees Nestor's heart was broken and his eyes were full of tears If only there was somethin' he could do about his ears And so it was that Nestor found the manger where they stayed Where kings and wise men bowed before the baby where he lay Mary bore our Saviour and Nestor brought them there A gift of love from God above for all the world to share Though, Rudolph, I just love you, I know you'd want it said Nestor's ears are lovely as a reindeer's nose is red So children, if you're happy when you trim your Christmas trees You might thank a little donkey whose ears hung to his knees Look at little Nestor, his ears hang to his knees They shouted as they praised him and his friends were all so pleased Nestor was so happy and his eyes held no more tears Now all the world knows Nestor for his laughter and his ears  More Marty Robbins Song Lyrics
