Jolene got run over by a cart: to the tune of Grandma got run over by a reindeer 

Jolene got ran over by a cart

In the pet department at Wal-Mart

You might say all pet owners are friendly

But as for me and Shirley, we disagree

She had been lookin’ at sweaters for Chico

Took one too many steps backwards 

And Bubba ran her over with his cart

Look out – there she goes

Bubba pushed her out of the way

Not even an oops or sorry

He filled his basket with Alpo

Quickly rolling down the aisle, out of sight 

Jolene got ran over by a cart

In the pet department at Wal-Mart

Little Chico didn’t get a new sweater 

Bubba took more than dog food on his roll

When we wondered over to the chip row

Here he comes!

She moved just in time

Bubba almost got her again

Jolene got ran over by a cart

In the pet department at Wal-Mart

You might say all pet owners are friendly

But as for me and Shirley, we disagree

*A cart is a motorized wheelchair. And this person really did try to run me over. There wasn’t anyone in Wal-Mart but him. And he was going where he wanted to go. He didn’t look up. Didn’t say excuse me or I’m sorry. He was laser focused on where he wanted to go.
