The Twelve Days of Christmas
[Intro: Brian Eichelberger]
Snowflakes are falling like gifts from above
You've got your egg nog, I've got my love
Whose presents are wrapped, I can't wait to see
What's in those 78 packages laid out for me
So I unwrap my presents for nearly two weeks
And confirm that my love has considered my needs
Above and beyond what I put on my list
This year my true love really got me some incredible gifts
[Verse 1]
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me
A partridge in a pear tree

A partridge in a pear tree
