The Little Drummer Boy
Come they told me
Our newborn King to see
Our finest gifts we bring
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
To lay before the King
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
This is to honour Him
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
When we come
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
Baby Jesus, I am a poor boy too
I have no gift to bring
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
That's fit to give a King
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
But may I play for You
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
On my drum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
The Mother Mary nodded
The ox and lamb kept time
I played my drum for Him
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
I played my best for Him
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
Then He smiled at me
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
Me and my drum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
Our newborn King to see
Our finest gifts we bring
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
To lay before the King
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
This is to honour Him
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
When we come
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
Baby Jesus, I am a poor boy too
I have no gift to bring
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
That's fit to give a King
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
But may I play for You
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
On my drum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
The Mother Mary nodded
The ox and lamb kept time
I played my drum for Him
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
I played my best for Him
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
(Rum-pum-pum-pum)
Then He smiled at me
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
Me and my drum
(Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum)
