One Toy Soldier

One toy soldier stands alone With his drum down by his side One toy soldier on his own With his drum to keep the time He keeps the beat of marching feet He keeps the beat so true He's one small toy for one small boy But his heart is, oh, so blue Who can mend my broken drum? Will it be as good as new? I must play when morning comes If I don't, what shall I do? He keeps the beat of marching feet He keeps the beat inside While children sleep, he dreams so deep There's a secret he must hide For he keeps the beat of marching feet He keeps the beat so true He wants to sing and hopes to bring Happy Christmas Day to you He keeps the beat of marching feet He keeps the beat inside Someone has come to mend his drum Now his heart lights up with pride So he keeps the beat of marching feet He keeps the beat so true When morning comes, he plays his drum Happy Christmas Day to you (holidays are here again) Happy Christmas Day to you (holidays are here again) Happy Christmas Day to you (holidays are here again) Happy Christmas Day to you (holidays are here again)
