Ulbricht Mini Drummer Christmas Nutcracker

The Ulbricht Mini Drummer Nutcracker figurine reminds me of the song “The Little Drummer Boy.” The one I recall in particular is sang by David Bowie and Bing Crosby. I see it every year on TV no matter what. I believe that in the past few years, PBS has had Christmas specials with the old school performers. Bing Crosby being one of them.

I suppose anything with the year 19xx on it is old school now. Nevertheless, this one is a classic. I found the Youtube video of it. Also, lyrics of “The Little Drummer Boy” is below the video if you want to sing along.

Classic Little Drummer Boy Duet Video and Lyrics

The Little Drummer Boy
lyrics by Katherine K. Davis, Henry Onorati, and Harry Simeone

Come they told me
Pa rum pum pum pum

A new born 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.

Little Baby
Pa rum pum pum pum

I am a poor boy too,
Pa rum pum pum pum

I have no gift to bring
Pa rum pum pum pum

That’s fit to give our King
Pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum

Shall I play for you!
Pa rum pum pum

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

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.
On my drum.
