You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming 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 coming
Santa Claus is coming to town
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Oh you better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming to town
Little toy dolls that cuddle and coo
Elephants boats and kiddy cars too
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Oh you better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming to town
He's making a list
Checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming to town
Oh you better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming to town
To town
