12 Days of Christmas Lyrics
Are you able to join in with the 12 days of Christmas lyrics along with others enjoying and celebrating Xmas?
Probably one of the best known Christmas songs although I’m sure you have noticed that when sung by a group of friends there are always a few who get stuck with the words.
That’s why I have added the lyrics of this popular carol to the site. Make sure you learn them and don’t be the one in the crowd singing along that doesn’t know the words.
To help you remember better I have added the image related to each verse. Images can be remembered by many people much better than text.
If you like the images why not take a look at the larger unique versions at the links located on each verse.
On The 12 Days of Christmas Lyrics
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.
On the third day of Christmas
my true love gave to me
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the fourth day of Christmas
my true love gave 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 gave 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 gave 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.

my true love gave to me
Seven swans a swimming,
Six geese a laying,

On the eighth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me
Eight maids a milking,
Seven swans a swimming,
Six geese a laying,

Three French hens,
Two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the ninth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a laying,
Five gold rings,
Four calling birds,

and a partridge in a pear tree.
On the tenth day of Christmas
my true love gave to me
Ten lords a leaping,

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 gave 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 gold rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves
