You better wach out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I´m telling yoy why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
He´s making a list,
Checking it twice;
Gonna find out who´s naughty or nice.
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you´re sleeping
He knows when you´re awake
He knows if you´re bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot totts and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
He sees you when you´re sleeping
He knows when you´re awake
He knows if you´re bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Goodness sake
You better wach out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I´m telling yoy why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming
Santa Claus is coming to town
(Coming to town)
Santa´s busy man he has no time to play
He´s got millinos of stocking to fill on Christmas day
(Santa Claus is coming to town)
(Santa Claus is coming)
(Santa Claus is coming to town)
