1. You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, I'm telling you why.

Santa Claus is coming to town, Santa Claus is coming to town.

Santa Claus is coming to town.

2. He's making a list, and checking it twice, he's gonna find out who's naughty and nice,

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!
