The "and" is always before the last item, the partridge in a pear tree, because it's at the end of the items that are being listed off. The singer is saying what they got that day and then recapping what they now have in total.
It can be interpreted the other way, of course, but I prefer this way because it just makes more sense. Hard enough to give someone 50 people compared to 140!
