The Blind Boys Of Alabama - Go Tell It on the Mountain

Little Drummer Boy

(Come, they told me)
(One rhythm, one heart)

Come, they told me, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(A newborn King to see)
A newborn King to see, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Our finest gifts we bring)
Our finest gifts we bring, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(To lay down before our King)
To lay before the King, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Rum-pum-pum) rum-pum-pum-pum
(Rum-pum-pum) rum-pum-pum-pum

(And so, to honor Him)
So, to honor Him, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(When we come)
When we come
(With our drums and a sweet baby saint)

Baby Jesus, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(And I'm a poor boy too)
I am a poor boy too, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(And I have no gifts to bring for You)
I have no gifts to bring, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(That's fit for such a King like you)
That's fit to give our King, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Rum-pum-pum) rum-pum-pum-pum
(Rum-pum-pum) rum-pum-pum-pum

(So I play on my drum)
Shall I play for you? Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Play on my drum) on my drum

(And Mary nodded at me and said)
Mary nodded, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(And the ox and the lamb kept time, the ox and the lamb kept time)
The ox and lamb kept time, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(And I played my drum for Him)
I played my drum for Him, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(And I tried my very best for Him)
I played my best for Him, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(Rum-pum-pum) rum-pum-pum-pum
(Rum-pum-pum) rum-pum-pum-pum

(Then He smiled, He smiled at me)
Then He smiled at me, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(And I smiled back at Him)
Me and my drum
(While I played my drum)

(One rhythm, one heart)
(One blood, one love)
(On and on)
