Patapan Lyrics

Willie take your little drum, with your whistle Robin come
When we hear the fife and drum
Tu-re-lu-re-lu, pat-a-pat-a-pan
When we hear the fife and drum
Christmas joys for every one
Come to earth His holy son
Tu-re-lu-re-lu, pat-a-pat-a-pan
Thus our Christmas joys began, precious gifts from God to man
God and man are more at one than the sounding fife and drum
When His love to us is come

Tu-re-lu-re-lu, pat-a-pat-a-pan
So when Christmas time is come we will play the fife and drum
