You'd better watch out, you'd better not cry   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 and 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'd better watch out, you'd better not cry   Better not pout, I'm telling you why   Santa Claus is coming to town
