Come they told me pa-rup-a-pum-pum
A newborn king to see pa-rup-a-pum-pum
Our finest gifts we bring pa-rup-a-pum-pum
That's fit to give our king pa-rup-a-pum-pum, rup-a-pum-pum, rup-a-pum-pum
So to honor him pa-rup-a-pum-pum
When we come

Little baby pa-rup-a-pum-pum
I am a poor boy too pa-rup-a-pum-pum
I have no gift to bring pa-rup-a-pum-pum
That's fit to give our king pa-rup-a-pum-pum, rup-a-pum-pum, rup-a-pum-pum
Can I play for you pa-rup-a-pum-pum
On my drum

Mary nodded pa-rup-a-pum-pum
The ox and lamb kept time pa-rup-a-pum-pum
I played my drum for him pa-rup-a-pum-pum
I played my best for him pa-rup-a-pum-pum, rup-a-pum-pum, rup-a-pum-pum
Then he smiled at me pa-rup-a-pum-pum
Me and my drum
