Wil lie, get your lit tle drum, Rob in bring your flute, and come.

Aren’t they fun to play up on?

Tu re lu re lu, pat a pat a pan; When you play your fife and drum, How can an y one be glum?

Let the joy ous tune play on!

Tu re lu re lu, pat a pat a pan; As the in stru ments you play, We will sing on Christ mas glum?

God and Day.
