Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come they told me, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
A new born King to see, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Our finest gifts we bring, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
To lay before the King, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
So to honor Him, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
When we come
[Verse 2]
Little baby, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
I am a poor boy too, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
I have no gift to bring, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
That's fit to give the King, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
[Verse 3]
Shall I play for you, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
On my drum?
[Verse 4]
Come they told me
A new born King to see
And I had nothing, nothing, to give
But I want to come
Bring what I have
To lay, to lay, to lay, to lay
Before the King
[Verse 5]
Me and my drum, me and my drum
I, I came to honor Him
Me and my drum
[Verse 6]
That's all I have to give
I've given everything I have
I'll play, I'll play, I'll play, I'll play
[Verse 7]
I've given, given everything
Everything I have to give, oh, oh
And oh, that's all I have to give
All I have to give
Just me and my drum
[Verse 8]
I'll give you everything I have
I'll bring the best I have to give
And I lay before the King of Kings
That's the best I have to give
[Outro]
In the spirit of Christmas season, it is said
"For I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all people
For unto you is born, this day in the city of David, a Savior, tis Christ the Lord
Glory to God in the highest and on Earth peace and goodwill towards men"
May we do our part since Heaven has done its part
May we treat each other with love, respect, honor, and dignity
And fight for peace instead of tearing each other to pieces
Merry Christmas
