Little Drummer Boy Lyrics by Johnny Cash
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Come they told me
Our newborn King to see
Our finest gifts we bring
To lay before the King

This is to honor Him
When we come

Baby Jesus, I am a poor boy too
I have no gift to bring
That's fit to give a King

But may I play for You
On my drum

The Mother Mary nodded
The ox and lamb kept time
I played my drum for Him
I played my best for Him

Then He smiled at me
Me and my drum
Come they told me   Our newborn King to see   Our finest gifts we bring   To lay before the King      This is to honor Him   When we come      Baby Jesus, I am a poor boy too   I have no gift to bring   That's fit to give a King      But may I play for You   On my drum      The Mother Mary nodded   The ox and lamb kept time   I played my drum for Him   I played my best for Him      Then He smiled at me   Me and my drum
