You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout

I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town


He's making a list
And checking it twice
Gonna find out

Who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin' to town


He sees you when you're sleepin'




He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good

So be good for goodness sake

You better watch out

You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town
