I just came back from a lovely trip
Along the Milky Way
Stopped off at the North Pole
To spend a holiday
I called on dear old Santa Claus
To see what I could see
He took me to his workshop
And told his plans to me, so
You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's makin' a list and checkin' 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
Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is comin' to town
And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Then kids in girl and boy land will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a Toyland
All around the Christmas tree
So, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Now Santa is a busy man
He has no time to play
He's got millions of stockings
To fill on Christmas day
You'd better write your letter now
And mail it right away
Because he's gettin' ready
His reindeer's and his sleigh, so
You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's makin' a list and checkin' 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
Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is comin' to town
And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Then kids in girl and boy land
Will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a Toyland
All around the Christmas tree
So, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
