Come, they told me, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
Our newborn King to see, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
Our finest gifts to bring, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
To lay before our King, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum, rum, pum, pum, pum
So, to honor Him, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum, when He come
Baby Jesus, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
I am a poor boy too, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
I have no gifts to bring, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
That fit to give our King, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
Rum, pum, pum, pum, rum, pum, pum, pum
Shall I play for You on my drum?
Mary nodded, the ox and lamb kept time
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
Then He smiled at me, pa, rum, pum, pum, pum
Me and my drum, pum, pum, pum, pum
Pum, pum, pum, pum, pum
Pum, pum, pum, pum, pum, pum, pum, pum
