Little Drummer Boy

"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 honour him," pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
"When we come."

"Baby Jesus," 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?"

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.
