Lyrics

[Verse 1]

One toy soldier stands alone

With his drum down by his side

One toy soldier on his own

With his drum to keep the time

[Verse 2]

He keeps the beat of marching feet

He keeps the beat so true

He's one small toy for one small boy

But his heart is oh, so blue

[Verse 3]

Who can mend my broken drum?

Will it be as good as new?

I must play when morning comes

If I don't, what shall I do?

[Verse 4]

He keeps the beat of marching feet

He keeps the beat inside

While children sleep, in dreams so deep

There's a secret he must hide

[Verse 5]

For he keeps the beat of marching feet

He keeps the beat so true

He wants to sing, and hopes to bring

Happy Christmas Day to you

[Verse 6]

He keeps the beat of marching feet

He keeps the beat inside

Someone has come to mend his drum

Now his heart lights up with pride

[Verse 7]

So he keeps the beat of marching feet

He keeps the beat so true

When morning comes, he plays his drum

Happy Christmas Day to you

Happy Christmas Day to you

Happy Christmas Day to you

Happy Christmas Day to you
