You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's makin' a list and checkin' it twice
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
Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot-toots and rummy tum-tums
Santa Claus is comin' to town
With curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is comin' to town
The kids in Girl and Boy land
Will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a Toyland town
All around the Christmas tree
So you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
