THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY

Come they told me
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
A new born 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

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

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.

The He smiled at me
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Me and my drum
