You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town, gather 'round

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

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

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

(Fire it up)

The kids and girls in boy land
Will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a toy land town
All around the Christmas tree

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