The 12 Days of Christmas |
| On the 1st day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| A partridge in a pear tree |
| On the 2nd day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| 2 turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree |
| On the 4th day of Chris |
| On the 3rd day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| 5 golden rings! |
| 4 calling birds, 3 french hens, 2 turtle doves |
| And a partridge in a pear tree |
| On the 9th day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| (On the 8th day of Christmas my true love gave to me) |
| 9 ladies dancing, 8 ladies dancing |
| (8 maids a-milking, 7 maids a-milking) |
| 7 ladies dancing, 6 ladies dancing |
| (6 maids a-milking) |
| Better not shout, you better not cry |
| You better not, in a pear tree |
| On the 9th |
| No! |
| On the 8th |
| No! |
| On the 7th day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| (Deck the halls with boughs of holly) |
| 7 swans a-swimming, 6 geese a-laying |
| (Here we come a-wassailing, among the leaves so) |
| 5 golden rings! |
| (Fa la la la) |
| 4 calling birds, 3 french hens, 2 turtle doves |
| (Here we come a-wassailing among the leaves so green) |
| The boar’s head in hand bear I bedeck’d with bays |
| And partridge in a pear tree |
| On the 11th day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| 11 pipers piping, 10 lords a-leaping |
| (Ding, dong) |
| 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a-milking |
| (Ding, dong) |
| 7 swans a swimming, 6 geese a laying |
| (Ding, dong) |
| 5 golden rings, 4 calling birds |
| 3 french hens, 2 turtle doves |
| And Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer! |
| On the 12th day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| I have a little dreidel, I made it out of clay |
| And when it’s dry and ready, a dreidel I shall play |
| Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel |
| Sorry… |
| On the 12th day of Christmas my true love gave to me |
| On the 12th day my true love gave to me |
| 12 drummers drumming like Olympus upon the Serengeti |
| 11 pipers piping, 10 lords a-leaping! |
| 9 ladies dancing they were dancing for me |
| 8 maids a-milking, they were milking just for me |
| I had Christmas down in Africa |
| I had Christmas down in Africa |
| I had Christmas down in Africa |
| (5 golden rings!) |
| I had Christmas down in Africa |
| (5 golden rings!) |
| I had Christmas down in Africa |
| (5 golden rings!) |
| Gonna deck the halls and do the things we never had |
| Partridge in a big pear tree |
| Partridge in a big pear tree |
