《The Little Drummer Boy》（中文：小鼓手男孩），又名《Carol of the Drum》（中文：圣诞鼓歌），是一首由美国音乐家Katherine Kennicott Davis在1941年创作的圣诞颂歌。内容描述一名鼓手男孩被东方三博士指引到耶稣诞生的现场，之后这名男孩以手上的鼓敲奏了一段音乐，作为祝贺主耶稣诞生的礼物。
此歌曲首次被采用在他人专辑里的翻唱，是由奥地利崔普家庭演唱团在1951年录制。之后在1958年由美国作曲家哈利•西梅昂旗下合唱团发表的版本，让此作品开始获得大众注目，成为往后在圣诞节期间里常被采用的歌曲。
The Little Drummer Boy歌词：
Come they told me pa rum pum pum pum
A new born king to see pa rum pum pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring pa rum pum pum pum
To lay before the king pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum rum pum pum pum
So to honor him pa rum pum pum pum
When we come
Little baby pa rum pum pum pum
I am a poor boy too pa rum pum pum pum
I have no gift to bring pa rum pum pum pum
That's fit to give the king pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum rum pum pum pum
Shall i play for you pa rum pum pum pum
On my drum
Mary nodded pa rum pum pum pum
The ox and lamb kept time pa rum pum pum pum
I played my drum for him pa rum pum pum pum
I played my best for him pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum rum pum pum pum
Then he smiled at me pa rum pum pum pum
Me and my drum
