You should try some songs by Mest.They are an awsome band and their drum beats are pretty easy.

If you get a guitarist to play something while you play, you can play any pop song, because it's very repetitive. Actually, i heard that (i forget the name of it) but the song that they play at war heroes funerals is really easy

Try some stuff by the White Stripes if you can find it. Their drum parts are pretty simple. You can always search online for simple drum pieces too.

there are some decent books on learning drum patterns... many of them are examples taken from songs. You are better off trying to play along with a CD while listening on headphones - just try to match the pieces being played - learn to listen to the bass drum patterns, the high-hat and ride cymbals, and the snare. Toms are usually used in fills, not the main pattern. Thus, once you teach yourself to dissect drum parts, you take what you've heard and translate it into what you want to play. It takes a bit of time and practice, but it does work.
I'd also recommend starting with some older rock songs - simple songs by the Kinks work really well.
"Four on the Floor" is your friend.
