Willie take your little drum With your flute oh Robin come With The sound of flute and drum tootle tootle toot, bing a bang a boom with The flute and with The drum I will say Nowell with joy. C'était la mode autrefois De louer le Roi des rois Au son de ces instruments "Turelurelu, patapatapan" Au son de ces instruments Il nous en faut faire autant. In The goodly olden days The king of kings we'd praise with The drum and with The flute tootle tootle toot, bing a bang a boom, with The flute and with The drum we should do alike just so  lessan>
