We're looking for the king, the new Messiah
We're following the star shining brighter.
"Old man, won't you help us if you can, "
He shook his head then 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.
You say 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 until now there hasn't been one.
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,
Heavens no,
There's a new kid in town,
Here in Bethlehem.
