[Chorus 1]
Oh! You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why (why)
Santa Claus is coming to town!

[Verse 1]
He's making a list
He's checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice
Santa Claus is coming to town!

[Chorus 2]
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!

[Chorus 1]

[Verse 2]
Little tin horns, little toy drums
Rudy-toot-toot and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is coming to town
Little curly head dolls that cuddle and coo
Elephants, boats and Kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is coming to town
All the kids in Girl and boy land
Will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a toy land town
Around that Christmas tree

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 1][2x]

[Outro]
He's coming to town
