[Verse 1]
Come, they told me
Pa-rum pum pum pum
Our newborn 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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
Shall I play for you?
Pa-rum pum pum pum
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
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
[Outro]
Come, they told me
Pa-rum pum pum pum
Our newborn King to see
Pa-rum pum pum pum
Here I come, here I come
Pa-rum pum pum pum
