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

Santa Claus

Is coming to town

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 to town

Santa Claus

Is coming to town

Santa Claus

Is coming 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 coming to town

Santa Claus

Is coming to town

Santa Claus

Is coming 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 coming to town

Santa Claus

Is coming to town

Santa Claus

Is coming

Santa Claus

Is coming to town

Santa Claus

Is coming to town
