I just came back from a lovely trip
Along the Milky Way
I called on dear old Santa Claus
To spend the holiday
Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming, coming to town
Yes, he's making a list, he's checking it twice
He gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming, coming to town
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been good or bad
So be good for goodness sake
You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming, coming to town
Yeah, yeah
Jolly old Santa Claus is coming, 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 heaven's sake
You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming
Yes, Mr. Santa Claus is coming
Oh, Santa Claus is coming to town
I have it on very good authority
In fact, I think it was
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Who told me so
