Twelve Dilly Beans
Just in case you want to sing!On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Twelve dilly beans,
Eleven perfect peas,
Ten leaves of lettuce,
Nine lovely leeks,
Eight mustard greens,
Seven sweet potatoes,
Six garlic peppers,
Five golden beets,
Four Chinese cabbage,
Three Fennel bulbs,
Two tasty turnips,
And a parsnip in a pear tree!
