Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town (Oh yeah, yeah)
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list
He's checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Oh, Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town (Santa is coming)

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
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town (Oh yeah, yeah)
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

So you'd better watch out
So you'd better watch out

Oh, Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

With little tin horns
And little toy drums
Rooty toot toot and rump-tum-tums
And curly haired dolls
That toodle and coo
Elephants, boats and kiddie cars, too

Oh, Santa Claus is coming to town (Oh yeah, yeah)
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

You ought to know
Oh, Santa Claus is coming to town (Oh yeah, yeah)
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
