Medley: Jolly Old St. Nicholas / The Little Drummer Boy
Jolly old St. Nicholas, lean your ear this way
Don't you tell a single soul what I'm gonna say
Christmas Eve is coming soon, now, you dear old man
Whisper what you'll bring to me, tell me if you can
When the clock is striking 12 and I'm sound asleep
Down the chimney broad and black with your pack you'll creep
All the stockings you will find hanging in a row
Mine will be the shortest one you'll be sure to know
(Ah, ah)
Johnny wants a pair of skates, Suzy wants a sled
Nelly wants a picture book, yellow, blue, and red
Now I think I'll leave to you what to give the rest
But give little Billy a drum this year (drum this year)
'Cause that's what he likes best
Come, they told me, pa-rum pum pum pum
Our newborn King to see, pa-rum pum pum pum
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
So to honor Him, pa-rum pum pum pum
When we come
Baby Jesu, pa-rum pum pum pum
I am a poor boy too, pa-rum pum pum pum
I have no gifts to bring, pa-rum pum pum pum
That's fit to give our King, pa-rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum
Shall I play for you, pa-rum pum pum pum
On my drum?
Mary nodded, pa-rum pum pum pum
The ox and lamb kept time, pa-rum pum pum pum
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
Don't you tell a single soul what I'm gonna say
Christmas Eve is coming soon, now, you dear old man
Whisper what you'll bring to me, tell me if you can
When the clock is striking 12 and I'm sound asleep
Down the chimney broad and black with your pack you'll creep
All the stockings you will find hanging in a row
Mine will be the shortest one you'll be sure to know
(Ah, ah)
Johnny wants a pair of skates, Suzy wants a sled
Nelly wants a picture book, yellow, blue, and red
Now I think I'll leave to you what to give the rest
But give little Billy a drum this year (drum this year)
'Cause that's what he likes best
Come, they told me, pa-rum pum pum pum
Our newborn King to see, pa-rum pum pum pum
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
So to honor Him, pa-rum pum pum pum
When we come
Baby Jesu, pa-rum pum pum pum
I am a poor boy too, pa-rum pum pum pum
I have no gifts to bring, pa-rum pum pum pum
That's fit to give our King, pa-rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum
Shall I play for you, pa-rum pum pum pum
On my drum?
Mary nodded, pa-rum pum pum pum
The ox and lamb kept time, pa-rum pum pum pum
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
