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

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town


He's making a list
He's checking it twice
He's gonna find out

Who's naughty or nice

Santa Claus is comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town


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

So be good for goodness sake

So you better watch out

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


Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin' to town

The kids in girl and boyland

Will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a toyland
All around the Christmas tree


So you better watch out
You better not cry

You better not pout
I'm telling you why


Santa Claus (is comin' to town)
Santa Claus (is comin' to town)
Santa Claus is comin'

Santa Claus is comin'
Santa Claus is comin'
To town
