You better watch out

You better not cry

You better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa claus

Is coming to town

He's making a list

He's checking it twice

He's gonna find out

Who's naughty or nice

Santa claus

Is coming 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

So you better watch out

You better not cry

You better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa claus

Is coming to town

So you better watch out

You better not cry

You better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa claus

Is coming to town

Don't you know he's making a list

He's checking it twice

He's gonna find out

Who's naughty or nice

Then boys and girls in kids land will have a jubilee

They're gonna build a toyland town

All around the christmas tree

So you better watch out you better not cry

You better not pout i'm telling you why
