Come, they told me, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
A newborn king to see, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
Our finest gifts we bring, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
To lay before the king, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
Rum, pa, pum, pum, pum, rum, pa, pum, pum
When we come, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, so to honor him, oh, oh
Little baby, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
I am a poor boy too, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
I have no gift to bring, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
That's fit to give the king, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
Rum, pa, pum, pum, pum, pa, pum, pum
On my drum, oh, oh, on my drum
Yeah, Mary nodded, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
The ox and lamb kept time, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
I played my drum for Him, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
I played my best for Him, pa, rum, pa, pum, pum
Rum, pa, pum, pum, rum, pa, pum, pum
Me and my drum, oh, yeah, oh, me and my drum
