[Chorus]
You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's making a list and checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin' to town

[Verse]
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

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

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse]
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, be good for goodness sake
[Chorus]
You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Yes, he's on his way
He's got ties all over the sleigh
Santa is comin' to town
