Vanessa Williams - The Best Of Vanessa Williams Volume 2: The Christmas Collection

The Little Drummer Boy

Come, they told me, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
A 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
Me and my drum

Little baby, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
I am a poor boy too, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
I have no gift 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
On my drum, yeah

(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Won't you play that drum) play that drum
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(All the king that's gone) all the king that's gone
(Drummer boy) ooh, yeah
(Play the rum-pum-pum-pum) pum-pum
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Play that drum) would you play that 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
Me and my drum
Come on

(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Won't you play that drum) won't you play that drum
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(All the king that's gone) I said, rum-pum-pum-pum
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Play the rum-pum-pum-pum) rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Play that drum) play that drum, rum-pum-pum-pum

(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Won't you play that drum) play that drum now
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(All the king that's gone) won't you play that drum
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Play, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum) say, pum-pum-pum

(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Play that drum) yeah, yeah
(Drummer boy) come, let's all meet
(Won't you play that drum)
(Drummer boy) a newborn King to see
(All the king that's gone) rum-pum-pum-pum
(Drummer boy) come, let's all meet
(Play rum-pum-pum-pum) drummer boy
(Drummer boy) drummer boy
(Play that drum) rum-pum-pum-pum

Rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum
