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

Well he's not very handsome to look at

And he's always killin' my chickens
That dirty old egg-suckin' dog
Egg-suckin' dog
I'm gonna stomp your head in the ground
If you don't stay out of my hen house
You dirty old egg-suckin' hound
Now if he don't stop eatin' my eggs up
Though I'm not a real bad guy
I'm gonna get my riffle and send him
To that great chicken house in the sky
Egg-suckin' dog
Your always hangin' around
But you'd better stay out of my hen house
You dirty old egg-suckin' hound
Well he's not very handsome to look at
Oh he's shaggy and he eats like a hog
And he's always killin' my chickens
That dirty old egg-suckin' dog

If you don't stay out of my hen house
You dirty old egg-suckin' hound
Now if he don't stop eatin' my eggs up
Though I'm not a real bad guy
I'm gonna get my riffle and send him
To that great chicken house in the sky
Egg-suckin' dog
Your always hangin' around
But you'd better stay out of my hen house
You dirty old egg-suckin' hound
I got a little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
I got a little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
He keeps everything in the barnyard
Upset in every way
The dogs begin to bark
The hounds begin to howl
The dogs begin to bark now
The hounds begin to howl
Watch out all you kin folk
My little red rooster's on the prowl
I tell you that he, keeps all the hens
Fighting among themselves
Keeps all the hens
Fighting among themselves
He don't want no hen in the barnyard
Laying eggs for nobody else
Let me tell everybody, now if you see my red rooster
Send him home
Said, if you see my red rooster
Send him home
I had no peace in the barnyard
Since my red rooster's been gone

My true love sent to me 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 turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree
On the eleventh day of Christmas
My true love sent to me 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 turtle doves
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 turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree!
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 golden 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-layin', five golden 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 gave to me
Seven swans a-swimmin', six geese a-layin', five golden 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 gave to me
Eight maids a-milkin', seven swans a-swimmin'
Six geese a-layin', five golden 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 gave to me
Nine lords a-leapin', eight maids a-milkin', seven swans a-swimmin'
Six geese a-layin', five golden rings, four calling birds, three French hens
Two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree
On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me
Ten ladies dancin', nine lords a-leapin', eight maids a-milkin'
Seven swans a-swimmin', six geese a-layin', five golden 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 gave to me
Eleven pipers pipin', ten ladies dancin', nine lords a-leapin'
Eight maids a-milkin', seven swans a-swimmin'
Six geese a-layin', five golden 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 drummin', eleven pipers pipin', ten ladies dancin'
Nine lords a-leapin', eight maids milkin', seven swans a-swimmin'
Six geese a-layin' five golden rings, four calling birds, three French hens
Two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree
There was an old lady from Houston
She had two hens and a rooster
Her rooster died, the old lady cried
"My hens don't lay like they used to!"
Ain't that a shame
Ain't that a shame
Ain't that a shame
She lost a helping hand
Her next door neighbor O' Cappy
He seems to be very happy
He can play in his corn, they will grow long
Cause the old rooster is gone
Ain't that a shame
Ain't that a shame
Ain't that a shame
She lost a helping hand
I know a lady named Sue
Her rooster died too
She didn't sigh, she didn't cry
She made her a pot of stew
Ain't that a shame
Ain't that a shame
Ain't that a shame
She lost a helping hand
There was an old lady from Houston
She had two hens and a rooster
Her rooster died, the old lady cried
"My hens don't lay like they used to!"
There was an old lady from Houston
She had two hens and a rooster
Her rooster died, the old lady cried
"My hens don't lay like they used to!"
Ain't that a shame!
(What we gon' do?) Feel on each other, and sip on some Hen
One thing leading to another, let the party begin
(What you doin'?) Nothing, chillin' at the Holiday Inn
(Who you wit'?)
"Peep peep" said the chick in the barnyard pen
"Quack quack" said the duck "won't you let me in?"
"Cluck cluck cluck" said the little red hen
"Let's boogie in the barnyard"
"Baa baa" said the sheep from another bowl
"Moo moo" said the cow "let the butter roll"
"Cluck cluck cluck" said the little red hen
"Let's boogie in the barnyard"
Yes, the barnyard was jumpin'
Everybody havin' their fling
Even Old MacDonald
Had to do a little kind o' swing
"Bow wow" said the dog in the circus top
"Miaow" said the cat "now, please don't stop"
"Cluck cluck cluck" said the little red hen
"Let's boogie in the barnyard"
Yes, even Uncle Ezra
Got caught with a dozen eggs
I saw Aunt Suzie
Kill the chicken with the bandy leg
Bow wow, bow wow,
Miaow, miaow
"Cluck cluck cluck cluck" said the little red hen
"Let's boogie in the barnyard"
Peep peep, quack quack,
Cluck cluck, moo moo,
Bow wow, miaow
I got a barrel of flour, Lord
I got a bucket of lard
I got a barrel of flour, Lord
I got a bucket of lard i ain't got no blues
Got chickens in my backyard
Got corn in my crib
Cotton growing in my patch
I got corn in my crib
Cotton growing in my patch
I got that old hen sitting waiting
For that old hen to hatch
Yodel ay-ee oh hard time blues
I'm gonna hitch up my mule and
Take a holt of my line
I'm gonna hitch up my mule and
Take a holt of my line
I can't be bothered with all
Those old hard times
(Oh, go ahead and pick one now)
I'm gonna build me a shanty, Lord
I'm gonna settle down
I'm gonna build me a shanty, Lord
I'm gonna settle down
Get me a cornfed mama and, Lordy
Quit a-running round (Here he comes)
I can make more money with my pick and plow
I can make more money with my pick and plow
With my one-eyed mule and my
Good old Jersey cow
Yodel ay-ee oh hard time blues
