Vanessa Williams – Drummer Boy lyrics
Come they told me
Pa rum pum pum pum
A new born 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
So to honor Him
Pa rum pum pum pum
Me and my drum
Little baby
Pa rum pum pum pum
I am a poor boy too
Pa rum pum pum pum
I have no gifts to bring
Pa rum pum pum pum
That's fit to give a King
Pa rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum
Shall I play for you
Pa rum pum pum pum
On my drum
On my drum, yeah
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Won't you play that drum (play that drum)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
For the King that's come
Drummer boy (ooh yeah)
Play the rum pum pum pum (pum pum)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Play that drum (would you play that drum)
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
Me and my drum
(Come on)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Won't you play that drum (won't play that drum, yeah)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
For the King that's come
(little pum pum pum pum)
Drummer boy (drummer boy)
Little rum pum pum pum (rum pum pum pum)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Play that drum (play that drum)
Rum pum pum pum
Pa rum pum pum pum
A new born 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
So to honor Him
Pa rum pum pum pum
Me and my drum
Little baby
Pa rum pum pum pum
I am a poor boy too
Pa rum pum pum pum
I have no gifts to bring
Pa rum pum pum pum
That's fit to give a King
Pa rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum
Shall I play for you
Pa rum pum pum pum
On my drum
On my drum, yeah
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Won't you play that drum (play that drum)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
For the King that's come
Drummer boy (ooh yeah)
Play the rum pum pum pum (pum pum)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Play that drum (would you play that drum)
Mary nodded
Pa rum pum pum pum
The ox and lamb kept time
Pa rum pum pum pum

Pa rum pum pum pum

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
Me and my drum
(Come on)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Won't you play that drum (won't play that drum, yeah)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
For the King that's come
(little pum pum pum pum)
Drummer boy (drummer boy)
Little rum pum pum pum (rum pum pum pum)
Drummer boy, (drummer boy)
Play that drum (play that drum)
Rum pum pum pum
