Lyrics:
Little Drummer Boy, The

Writer(s):  Harry Simeone / Henry Onorati / Katherine K. Davis

Come they told me (pa-rum pum pum pum)
A newborn King to see (pa-rum pum pum pum)
Our finest gifts we bring pa-rum pum pum pum to lay before the King,
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
Shall I play for You? (pa-rum pum 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 pum), I played my best for Him
Then He smiled at me (pa-rum pum pum pum) me and my drum
