Come, they told me, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam
A newborn king to see, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam
Our finest gifts we bring, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam
Ra-pam-pam-pam, ra-pam-pam-pam
(Come, they told me, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
Peace on Earth, can it be?
(A newborn King to see, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
Years from now, perhaps we'll see
(Our finest gifts we bring, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
See the day of glory
(See the fine King, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam, ra-pam-pam-pam)
See the day when men of good will
(Ra-pam-pam-pam)
Live in peace, live in peace again
(So newborn king, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
Peace on Earth
Can it be?
(Can we come?)
Every child must be made aware
Every child must be made to care
Care enough for his fellow man
To give all the love that he can
(Little baby, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
I pray my wish will come true
(I see the child, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
For my child and your child too
(I'll take my trumpet, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
He'll see the day of glory
(I'll play my best for Him, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam, ra-pam-pam-pam)
See the day when men of good will
(Ra-pam-pam-pam)
Live in peace, live in peace again
(And he smiled at me, pa-ram-pam-pam-pam)
Peace on Earth
(Me and my drum)
Can it be?
