Patapan

Willie, take your little drum,

With your whistle, Robin, come!

When we hear the fife and drum,

Ture-lure-lu, pata-pata-pan,

When we hear the fife and drum,

Christmas should be frolicsome.

Thus the men of olden days

Loved the King of Kings to praise:

When they hear the fife and drum,

Ture-lure-lu, pata-pata-pan,

When they hear the fife and drum,

Sure our children won't be dumb.

God and man are now become

More at one than fife and drum.

When you hear the fife and drum,

Ture-lure-lu, pata-pata-pan,

When you hear the fife and drum,

Dance and make the village hum!
