Medley: Jolly Old St. Nicholas / The Little Drummer Boy

Lyrics

Jolly old Saint Nicholas
 Lean your ear this way
 Don't you tell a single soul
 What I'm going to say
 Christmas Eve is coming soon
 Now, you dear old man
 Whisper what you'll bring to me
 Tell me if you can
 ♪
 When the clock is striking twelve
 When I'm sound asleep
 Down the chimney, broad and black
 With your pack you'll creep
 All the stockings you will find
 Hanging in a row
 Mine will be the shortest one
 You'll be sure to know
 Johnny wants a pair of skates
 Suzy wants a sled
 Nellie wants a picture book
 Yellow, blue, and red
 Now I think I'll leave to you
 What to give the rest
 But give little Billy a drum this year
 'Cause that's what he likes best
 ♪
 Come they told me, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
 A newborn 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
 ♪
 Baby Jesu, 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
 ♪
 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
