James W. Keefe - Patapan - ноты, текст песни (слова)

1. 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 should be frolicksome.
 
 2. When the men of olden days
 Gave the King of kings their praise.
 They had pipes to play upon,
 Tu-re-lu-re-lu, Pat-a-pat-a-pan,
 And also the drums they play'd,
 Full of joy on Christmas Day.
 
 3. Satan now has lost his claim
 For the grace of Jesus came
 With the sound of caroling
 Tu-re-lu-re-lu, Pat-a-pat-a-pan
 With the sound of caroling
 Let us all our triumph sing.
 
 4. God and man now join as one
 As the fife and drum have done,
 As we listen to them play,
 Tu-re-lu-re-lu, Pat-a-pat-a-pan,
 As we listen to them play,
 Let us sing of Christmas Day.
