THE TWELVE DAYS OF ZORRO
by Kathy McManus and Kathryn. D. Green
Hi, everyone! In anticipation of the coming Christmas season, Kathy Green and I got together and wrote this little song for your (hopefully) enjoyment. This is what happens when you have too much time on your hands. :)
"The Twelve Days of Zorro," by Kathy Green and Kathy McManus, to be sung to the tune of "The Twelve Days of Christmas," which we borrow for our purposes and will put back unharmed. (I know that's debatable.) Any references to Zorro and New World characters are used for non-commercial reasons and will be placed in where they belong after our use.
