Despite the song, they almost certainly were not actually kings. The Bible doesn't go into great detail about them (it doesn't even come right out and say how many there were, just that it must have been more than 1), but based on clues in what it does say it seems likely that they were probably astrologers and/or magicians (there wasn't a big distinction between the two at the time).

The term "wisemen" is actually a misnomer. The wisemen were actually astronomers from the orient who came to find Jesus, but did not do so until about two years after His birth. The Bible doesn't say there were three of them either. So the phrase "the three wisemen" is not a correct statement. However, the men did bring gifts of gold frankincense and myrrh when they did find Jesus.
