Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry

You better not pout, I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

Oh, he's making a list and checking it twice

He's gonna find out who's naughty or nice

Santa Claus is coming to town



Oh, 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



Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry

You better not pout, I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

Oh, he's making a list, checking it twice

Gonna find out who's naughty or nice

Santa Claus is coming to town



Mmm, he's making a list and checking it twice

Gonna find out who's naughty or nice

Santa Claus is coming to town, yeah



Oh, 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



Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry

You better not pout, I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming, oh, Santa Claus is coming

Oh, Santa Claus is coming to town
