You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus
is comin' to town
Gather 'round
He's makin' a list
Checkin' it twice
He's gonna find out
who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus
is comin' to town
He sees you
when you're sleepin'
He knows
when you're awake
He knows if you've been
bad or good
So be good
for goodness sake
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus
is comin' to town
With little tin horns
and little toy drum
Rootie toot toots
and rummy tum tum
Santa Claus
is comin' to town
And curly head dolls
that cottle and coo
Elephants boats
and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus
is comin' to town
The kids and girls
in boyland
Will have a jubilee
They're gonna
build a toyland town
all around the
Christmas tree
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm-a tellin' you why
Santa Claus
is comin' to town
He sees you
when you're sleepin'
And he knows
when you're awake
He knows if you've been
bad or good
So be good
for goodness sake
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus
is comin' to town
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm-a tellin' you why
Santa Claus
is comin'
You mean the
big fat man with the
long white beard
He's common' to town
