Words and Music by J. Fred Coots and Haven Gillespie
You better watch out; you better no cry;
Better no 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 or nice:
Santa Claus is comin' to town.
He sees you when you're sleepin';
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.
