The Little Drummer Boye (original)

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
Little baby, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
I am a poor girl too, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
I have no gifts to bring, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
That’s fit to give the King, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pum-pum-pum, pum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum-pum-pum
Shall I play for You pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Mary nodded, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
The ox and the lamb kept time, little drummer boy
