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.

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 our King,

Pa rum pum pum pum

Rum pum pum pum

Rum pum pum pum

Shall I play for you?

Pa rum pum pum

On my drum.

Mary nodded,

Pa rum pum pum pum

The ox and lamb kept time,

Pa rum pum pum pum

I played my drum for Him,

Pa rum pum pum

I played my best for Him,

Pa rum pum pum pum

Rum pum pum pum

Rum pum pum pum

Then He smiled at me,

Pa rum pum pum pum

Me and my drum.
