You better watch out

You better not cry

You better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town



He's making a list

And checking 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



You better watch out

You better not cry

You better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town
