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
Checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty gone 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 if you're awake
He knows if 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 to town!
Santa Claus is coming to town!
Santa Claus is coming to town!

The kids and girl in boyland will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a toyland all around the Christmas tree

Oh! 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!
