We re looking for the king
The new messiah
We re following the star
Shining bright above
Old man won t you help us if you can
He shook his head
But he pointed his hand


There s a new kid in town
And he s lying in a manger
Down the road
There s a new kid in town
But he s just another baby
I suppose
Heaven knows
There s a new kid in town
Here in Bethlehem


I see you ve traveled far
Bearing treasures
You say these gifts are for
The new king s pleasures
I ve heard that a king might come
But up till now there hasn t been one


But there s a new kid in town
And he s lying in a manger
Down the road
There s a new kid in town
But he s just another baby
I suppose
Heaven knows
There s a new kid in town
Here in Bethlehem


There s a new kid in town
And he s lying in a manger
Down the road
There s a new kid in town
But he s just another baby
I suppose
Heaven knows
There s a new kid in town
Here in Bethlehem.
