Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

By J. Fred Coots and Haven Gillespie

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,
And checking it twice,
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!

Oh...
You better watch out,
You better not cry
You better not pout,
I'm telling you why...
Santa Claus is coming to town!

With little tin horns,
And little toy drums.
Rooty-toot-toots,
And rummy tum tums.
Santa Claus is coming town!

And curly-haired dolls,
That toddle and coo,
Elephants, boats,
And kiddie cars too.
Santa Claus is coming to town!

The kids in girl and boy land,
Will have a jubilee.
They're gonna build a toyland town
All around the Christmas tree.

Sooo. . . .
You better watch out,
You better not cry.
You better not pout,
I'm telling you why...
Santa Claus is coming...
Santa Claus is coming...
Santa Claus is coming to town!
