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
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 the 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?


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, my drum, my drum...
