Little Drummer Boy Lyrics

White Heart Little Drummer Boy

"Come," they told me,
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
"Our new born king to see,"
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
Our finest gifts we bring,
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
To set before the king,
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
Rum-pa-pum-pum,
Rum-pa-pum-pum,
So, to honour him,
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
When we come.

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 a king,
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
Rum-pa-pum-pum,
Rum-pa-pum-pum,
Shall I play for you?
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
On my drum,
On my drum, yeah,
I'll play for you.

Then he nodded,
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum, oh,
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, yeah,
Then he smiled at me,
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum,
Me and my drum,
Me and my drum,
Me and my drum,
Me and my drum.
