Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
[Verse 2]
You'd better watch out (Watch out)
You'd better not cry
You'd better not pout
I'm telling you why
[Verse 3]
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
[Verse 4]
He's making a list
And checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
[Verse 5]
Santa Claus is comin' to town, oh yeah!
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
[Verse 6]
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 (Be good for goodness sake)
[Verse 7]
Oh, you'd better watch out
You'd better not cry
Better not pout
I'm telling you why
[Verse 8]
Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town, oh yeah!
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
[Verse 9]
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
[Verse 10]
Little tin horns
And little toy drums
Rooty-toot-toot
And rump-a-tum-tum
[Verse 11]
Curly-haired dolls
That tootle and coo
Elephants, boats and kiddie cars, too
[Verse 12]
Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town, oh yeah!
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
[Verse 13]
One more time now
[Verse 14]
Santa Claus is comin' to town, oh yeah!
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
