You better not cry
 You better not pout
 I'm telling you why

 Santa Claus is comin' to town
 Santa Claus is comin' to town
 Santa Claus is comin' to town

 He's making a list
 He's checking it twice
 He's gonna find out
 Who's naughty or nice

 Santa Claus is comin' to town
 Santa Claus is comin' to town
 Santa Claus is comin' to town

 He sees you when you're sleeping
 He knows when you're awake
 He knows if you've been bad or good
 So be good for goodness sake

 So you better watch out
 You better not cry
 You better not pout
 I'm telling you why

 Santa Claus is comin' to town
 Santa Claus is comin' to town
 Santa Claus is comin' to town

 The kids in girl and boyland
 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 comin' to town)
 Santa Claus (is comin' to town)
 Santa Claus is comin'
 Santa Claus is comin'
 Santa Claus is comin'
 To town
