Lyrics

Jimmy, I just came back from a lovely trip along the Milky Way I stopped off at the North Pole to spend the holiday I called on old, dear Santa Claus to see what I could see He took me to his workshop and told his plans to me Now Santa is a busy man, he has no time to play He's got millions of stockings to fill on Christmas day You better write your letter now, and mail it right away Because he's getting ready, his reindeers and his sleigh You'd better watch out, you'd better not cry You'd 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 checkin' it twice He's gonna find out whose naughty or nice Santa Claus is coming to town Santa Claus is coming to town Santa Claus is coming to town He sees when you are sleeping He knows when you're awake He knows if you've been bad or good So be good for goodness sake Oh, you'd better watch out, you'd better not cry You'd 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 With little tin horns and little toy drums Rooty-toot-toots and rummy-tum-tums Curly head dolls that toddle and coo Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars, too Santa Claus is coming to town Santa Claus is coming to town Santa Claus is coming to town All the kids in Girls and Boy Land 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 to town Santa Claus is coming to town
