[Verse 1]
Come, they told me, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum
A newborn King to see, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum

To lay before the King, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum
Ra-pa-pum-pum, ra-pa-pum-pum
So to honor Him, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum
When we come, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum

Little Baby, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum (Ra-pa-pa-pum-pum-pum)

Then He smiled at me, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum
Me and my drum, pa-ra-pa-pum-pum
