(Haven Gillespie - Fred J. Coots)

You better watch out you better not cry
You better not pout I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
He's making a list and checkin' it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice
Santa Claus is coming to town.

He sees you when your 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 tellin' you why
Santa Claus is coming to town.

--- Instrumental ---

The kids and girl and boy land
Will have a jubilee
There gonna fill the toy land
All around the Christmas trees.

So you better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout I'm tellin' you why
Santa Claus is coming.

Santa Claus is coming, to town...
