12 Days of Christmas Lyrics
Under the Christmas Tree there are presents
What do you think those gifts might be?
One for each day of the Christmas season
What do you think my true love gave to me?
(Whoa!)
On the first day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
A Partridge in a Pear Tree
On the second day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
Two Turtle Doves
And a Partridge in a Pear Tree
All I want for Christmas is my two turtle doves!
... and a Partridge in a Pear Tree
On the third day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
Three French Hens
And Two Turtle Doves
They're the gifts from my own true love
One more present
Is that a pheasant?
No it's a Partridge in a Pear Tree (oh, oh)
What do you think those gifts might be?
One for each day of the Christmas season
What do you think my true love gave to me?
(Whoa!)
On the first day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
A Partridge in a Pear Tree
On the second day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
Two Turtle Doves
And a Partridge in a Pear Tree
All I want for Christmas is my two turtle doves!
... and a Partridge in a Pear Tree
On the third day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
Three French Hens
And Two Turtle Doves
They're the gifts from my own true love
One more present
Is that a pheasant?

For the sixth day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
No chicks, no ducks, but Six Geese a-Laying
What do you do with six geese a-laying?
Geese eat a lot and that's all I'm saying
So you better stop with the
Five Golden Rings
Four Calling Birds
Three French Hens
Two Turtle Doves
And a Partridge with a fringe on the top

Two Turtle Doves
A Partridge too
Along with Seven Swimming Swans
On the eighth day of Christmas
My true love gave to me:
Eight Maids a-Milking

Six Geese a-Laying, the moon on their wings

My true love gave to me:
Not a monkey on a flagpole, but
12 Drummers all a-Drumming (pah-rum pum pum...)
They were followed by Eleven Pipers Piping
