The Little Drummer Boy

Come, they told me
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
Our new-born King to see
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
Our finest gifts we bring
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum

To lay before the King
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum, rum-pa-pa-pum, rum-pa-pa-pum
So, to honor Him
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
When we come

Baby Yesu
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
I am a poor boy, too
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
I have no gift to bring
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum

That's fit to give a King
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum, rum-pa-pa-pum, rum-pa-pa-pum
Shall I play for you
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
On my drum?

Mary nodded
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
The ox and lamb kept time
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
I played my drum for Him
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum

I played my best for Him
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum, rum-pa-pa-pum, rum-pa-pa-pum

Then, he smiled at me
Pa-rum-pa-pa-pum
Me and my drum
