Come, they told me, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
the newborn King you'll see, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom.
Our finest gifts we bring, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
to lay before the King, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
romp-pa-pom-pom, romp-pa-pom-pom,
so to honor him, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom, when we come.
Baby Jesus, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
I am a poor boy too, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
I have no gift to bring, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
that fit to give our King, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
romp-pa-pom-pom, romp-pa-pom-pom,
Shall I play for you, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
Shall I play for you, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
Shall I play for you, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom, on my drum
Shall I play for you, pa-romp-pa-pom-pom, on my drum.
Mary nodded pa-rumpa-pom-pom,
The ox and lamb kept time pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
I played my drum for him pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
I played my best for him pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
romp-pa-pom-pom, romp-pa-pom-pom
Then he smiled at me pa-romp-pa-pom-pom,
Then he smiled at me and my drum.
On my drum, on my drum, on my drum, on my drum,
on my drum, on my drum, on my drum, on my drum,
on my drum, on my drum, on my drum, on my drum,
Me and my drum, me and my drum,
Me and my drum, me and my drum,
On my drum, on my drum, on my drum, on my drum, ....
