Come they told me, pa rumrumpum pum
A new born King to see, pa rumpumpum pum
Our finest gifts we bring, pa rumpumpum pum
To lay before the King, pa rumpumpum pum,
rumpumpum pum,
rumpumpum pum,
So, to honor Him, pa rumpumpum pum,
When we come.

Little Baby, pa rumpumpumpum
I am a poor boy too, pa rumpumpum pum
I have no gift to bring, pa rumpumpum pum
That's fit to give the King, pa rumpumpum pum
rumpumpum pum,
rumpumpum pum,

Shall I play for you, pa rumpumpum pum,
On my drum?

Mary nodded, pa rumpumpumpum,
The ox and lamb kept time, pa rumpumpum pum
I played my drum for Him, pa rumpumpum pum
I play me best for Him, pa rumpumpum pum,
rumpumpum pum,
rumpumpum pum

Then He smiled at me, pa rumpumpum pum
Me and my drum
