The Twelve Days Of Christmas

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 turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

On the third day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Three French hens, two turtle doves

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 turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

On the fifth day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Five gold rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

On the sixth day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Six geese a laying, five gold rings, four calling birds

Three French hens, two turtle doves

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 gold rings

Four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves

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 gold rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

On the ninth day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Nine drummers drumming

On the tenth day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Ten pipers piping

Nine drummers drumming, ten pipers piping

Drumming, piping, drumming, piping

Eight maids a milking, seven swans a swimming, six geese a laying

Five gold rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Eleven ladies dancing, ten pipers piping, nine drummers drumming

Eight maids a milking, seven swans a swimming, six geese a laying

Five gold rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree

On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love sent to me

Twelve Lords a leaping, eleven ladies dancing, ten pipers piping

Nine, drummers drumming, eight maids a milking

Seven swans a swimming, six geese a laying

And five gold rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves

And a partridge in a pear tree, and a partridge in a pear tree
