[Alicia Keys - Little Drummer Girl lyrics]

To me, it seems like Christmas is lost
'Cause it's not about celebrating anymore
It's just about giving to receive
And the illest thing to me
About the little drummer boy
Or the little drummer girl, in my case
I mean
Is that all that shorty had was her drum
That's it
And through her drum, she gave Jesus her soul
And ain't no amount of riches that
Could ever amount to that
Y'know what I'm sayin'?

Ba dee ah, ba dee ah come on, they told me
A newborn king to see
Our finest gifts we bring to
Lay before the king so here we come
Oh, rum pum pum pum, mmm

Baby Jesus, I am a poor girl, too


I have no gift to bring
That's fit to give a king
Shall I play for you on my drum?

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
Me and my drum

Rum pum pum pum pa rum pum pum pum
Pa rum pum pum pum (Oh, yeah)
Pa rum pum pum pum (Oh) pa rum pum pum pum
Pa rum pum pum pum (Come on, they told me)
Pa rum pum pum pum (A newborn king to see)
Pa rum pum pum pum
(Can I play my drum for him?)
Pa rum pum pum pum (Oh oh)
Pa rum pum pum pum (Oh oh yeah)
Pa rum pum pum pum pa rum pum pum pum
Pa rum pum pum pum pa rum pum pum pum
