Come they told me, pa-rum-pa-pum-pum

A new born 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

Rum-pa-pum-pum

So to honor him, pa-rum-pa-pum-pum

When we come



Baby Jesu, 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 our king, pa-rum-pa-pum-pum

Rum-pa-pum-pum

Rum-pa-pum-pum

Shall I play for you, pa-rum-pa-pum-pum

O-on my drum



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



Then he smiled at me, pa-rum-pa-pum-pum

Me and my drum



Rum-pa-pum-pum

Me and my drum

Rum-pa-pum-pum

Me and my drum

Rum-pa-pum-pum (fade)
