The Twelve Days of Christmas
Lyrics
On the first day of Christmas my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree
On the second day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the third day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the fourth day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the fifth day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the sixth day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Six geese a-laying
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the seventh day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Seven swans a-swimming
Six geese a-laying
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the eighth day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Eight maids a-milking
Seven swans a-swimming
Six geese a-laying
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Can we stop now, Dave?
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the ninth day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Nine ladies dancing
Eight maids a-milking
Seven swans a-swimming
I'm getting tired, Dave!
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the tenth day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Ten lords a-leaping
Nine ladies dancing
Eight maids a-milking
Seven swans a-swimming
I'm getting tired!
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Eleven pipers peeping
Ten milking jumpers
Nine jumping
Eight maids a mopping
Si-Seven swans a swimming
Four geese loose
Now cut that out!
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love sent to me
Twelve drummers drumming
Eleven pipers piping
Ten lords a leaping
Nine ladies dancing
Eight maids a-milking
Seven swans a-swimming
Six geese a-laying
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtledoves
And a partridge in a pear tree!
