It's nine o'clock on a Christmas Eve
There's not any room at the inn
And there stands a young lady who's having a baby
Though she claims to be a virgin

She says, “Innkeeper, can you take pity on me?
You see that my child is in danger”
And the innkeeper says, with a shake of his head,
“You may stay the night in the manger”

Oh, la da da, diddy ah da
La da, diddy ah, da da

They say, “Play us a song, yr the drummer boy
Play us a song tonight
'Cuz we're all in the mood for a rum-pa-pum-pum
And you've got us feeling all right”

Now, these three wise men are following the light
Of the star that the angel foretold
Yes, they're taking that trip and carrying gifts
Of myrrh, and frankincense, and gold

And Joseph's a hard-working Nazarene
Whose garments are tattered and torn
And though he's not the father, he don't appear bothered
For tonight, a savior is born

Oh, la da da, diddy ah da
La da, diddy ah, da da

They say, “Play us a song, yr the drummer boy
Play us a song tonight
'Cuz we're all in the mood for a rum-pa-pum-pum
And you've got us feeling all right”

“Play us a song, yr the drummer boy
Play us a song tonight
'Cuz we're all in the mood for a rum-pa-pum-pum
And you've got us feeling all right
Yes, we're all in the mood for a rum-pa-pum-pum
And you've got us feeling all right”
