Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come, they told me
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum
Our 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, rum-pa-pum-pum
[Verse 2]
So to honor him
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum
When we come
[Verse 3]
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 a king
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum
Rum-pa-pum-pum, rum-pa-pum-pum
[Verse 4]
Shall I play for you?
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum
On my drum
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
Then he smiled at me
Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum
Me and my drum
