Some Day At Christmas
The Spinners Lyrics


On the first day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree!

Two turtle doves
On the second day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Two turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree!
Three french hens
On the third day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Three french hens
Two turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree!

Four calling birds
On the fourth day of Christmas (what's a calling bird)
My true love sent to me
Four calling birds
Three french hens
Two turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree!

Five golden rings!
On the fifth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Five golden rings!
Four calling birds
Three french hens
Two turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree!

Six geese a layin'
On the sixth day of Christmas
My true love sent 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!

Seven swans a swimmin'
On the seventh day of Christmas
My true love sent 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!

Eight maids a milkin'
On the eighth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Eight maids a milkin'
Seven swans a swimmin'
Six geese a layin'
Five golden rings!
Four calling birds (calling birds)
Three french hens
Two turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree!

Nine ladies dancin'
On the ninth day of christmas
My true love sent to me
Nine ladies dancin'
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!

Ten lords a leapin'
On the tenth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Ten lords a leapin'
Nine ladies dancin'
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!

Eleven pipers pipin'
On the eleventh day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Eleven pipers pipin'
Ten lords a leapin'
Nine ladies dancin'
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!

Twelve drummers drummin'
On the twelfth day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Twelve drummers drummin'
Eleven pipers pipin'
Ten lords a leapin'
Nine ladies dancin'
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!

The best version of 'Silent Night' ever recorded; so gentle and so heart-felt. The Spinners were just great musicians! Love and peace.

@bighoaxor

There are no words for how much I LOVE this! The Spinners always make my christmas. I was lucky enough to see their reunion christmas tour when I was about 4 years old and it's one of my earliest and fondest memories.

@stevemerrett7278

Promised myself that I would watch this on Christmas Eve of this year, 2020. Brought back many happy memories at the end of a terrible year.........so nice to see 'the lads' together as they were. Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

@grantd165

I love this. I never really had heard of the spinners until lockdown. Wish more of their shows were available on YouTube.

@louisecollett6119

This is fabulous!! We had Sing Out Shout With Joy album as kids and played it every single year, I had it put on cd and play it every Christmas even now, just wouldn’t be the same without it...I love the Spinners , such beautiful harmonious music x

@lynby6231

Being from Liverpool myself I had their EP The singing city, this takes me back to my childhood

@alansbr0wn

Thanks so much for sharing. What a wonderful group. So many memories of their fantastic concerts!

@aggiemay81

I was a huge fan of the Spinners! I saw them live a couple of times and had all their LP’s
Thanks for this

@KAF128

Me too. Mum has loads of their vinyl albums! They even gave me a mention at a concert in Northampton, on my 10th birthday (I am now 57!)

@stevemerrett7278

This is ace! I grew up listening to these 4 Guys and they were a massive influence. My only question is why are none of the other shows ever seen, or did the 'Beeb' in its infinite wisdom wipe them too. Likewise, nothing on CD and the back catalogue is vast. As commented already, Christmas isn't the same without them
