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

Well, he's making a list, he's checking it twice
He's gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town

Well, he knows when you are sleeping
And he knows when you're awake
And he knows if 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, baby
Well, he is coming to town

Well, he's making a list, he's checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming, baby
Well, he is coming to town

Well, he knows when you are sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

So you better watch out, you better not cry
Don't be poutin' 'cause I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming
Yeah, he is coming to town, oh yeah
Yeah, he's coming, Santa's coming
Yeah, he is coming to town, oh yeah
