Who’s that knocking on the innkeeper’s door?
Do they want a room?
For we have no more.
Tired is Joseph and Mary too,
A stable is all we can offer you.
Chorus
Rat a tat tat! Rat-a-tat tat!
Rat-a-tat-tat! Rat-a-tat tat!

Who’s that knocking on the innkeeper’s door?
Do they want a room?
For we have no more.
Shepherds here to see the New Born King,
Sent by an angel, yes you can come in.
Chorus

Who’s that knocking on the innkeeper’s door?
Do they want a room?
For we have no more.
Wise Men following a shining star
With precious gifts, well they must have travelled far.
