Oh you better watch out you better not cry

You better not pout I'm tellin' you why Santa Claus is comin' to town



He's a making a list checking in twice gonna find out who's naughty and nice

Santa Claus is comin' to town

He sees you when you're sleeping he knows when you're awake

He knows when you've been bad or good so be good for goodness sake

Oh you better watch out...

[ guitar ]

With a little tin horn and a little toy drum a root a toot toot and a rum a tum tum

Santa Claus is comin' to town

Curly hair dolls the cuddle 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

Oh you better watch out...

Santa Claus is comin' to town
