You better watch out, you better not cry 
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 

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 
Better not pout, I'm telling you why 
Santa Claus is comin' to town 

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