In Its 'Pa Rum Pum Pum' Beat

The day is in its 'pa rum pum pum' beat For the little drummer boy is now coming Banging his drum on the busy crowded street With his steady on - Christmas beat drumming Everybody's busy going their way Finding presents - for their joy to uplift Before the arrival of the holiday That comes though glisten and makeshift Happy hours in the waking of the tide And carillon bells that are now ringing Letting us know how the windows are decked Something isn't right with drummer boy's stride In how he holds back each hammers dinging Maybe he's showing the street pauper respect *(Little 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, When we come. Little Baby, pa rum pum pum pum I am a poor boy too, pa rum pum pum pum I have no gift to bring, pa rum pum pum pum That's fit to give the 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? 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.)
