Here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus Lane
Vixen and Blitzen, and all his reindeer
Pulling on the reins.
Bells are ringing, children singing,
All is merry and bright.
Hang your stockings with Christmas cheer,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.
Oh ho ho
Who would I go
Oh ho ho
Who would I go
Up on a house top
Click click click
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.
So gather 'round
Gather 'round
Until night becomes the day
Gather 'round, gather 'round
We're gonna have a good time and celebrate
So gather 'round
Gather 'round
Until night becomes the day
Gather 'round, gather 'round
We're gonna have a good time and celebrate
Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus Lane
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
Pulling on the reins.
Bells are ringing, children singing,
All is merry and bright.
Hang your stockings with Christmas cheer,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight
Santa Claus is coming tonight
Santa Claus is coming tonight
Santa Claus is coming tonight
