rum pum pum pum

Come they told me
Pa rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
A new born King to see (ba bum)
Pa rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
Our finest gifts we bring
Pa rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
rum pum pum pum
rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
Little (little) baby
Pa rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
I am a poor boy too
Pa rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
I have no gift to bring
Pa rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
(Ooohh)
That's fit to give our King
Pa rum pum pum pum
rum pum pum pum

Then he smiled
Smiled at me
Mary nodded
Pa rum pum pum pum (ba bum)
The ox and lamb kept time
Pa rum pum pum pum
I played my drum for Him
Pa rum pum pum pum
I played my best for Him
Pa rum pum pum pum

Me and my drum...

Me and my drum (oh)

rum bum bum bum
rum bum bum bum
Me and my (me and my, me and my...)
Drum...
