| i just came back from a lovely trip along the milky way | 
| i stopped off at the north pole to spend the holiday | 
| i called on old dear santa claus to see what i could see | 
| he took me to his workshop and told his plans to me now santa is a busy man — he has no time to play | 
| he’s got millions of stockings to fill on christmas day | 
| you better write your letter now and mail it right away | 
| because he’s getting ready — his reindeers and his sleigh | 
| 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 | 
| he’s making a list and checking it twice | 
| he’s gonna find out who’s naughty or nice | 
| santa claus is coming to town | 
| santa claus is coming to town | 
| 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 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 | 
| little tin horns, little toy drums | 
| rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums | 
| curly head dolls that coddle and coo | 
| elephants, boats and kiddie cars too | 
| santa claus is coming to town | 
| santa claus is coming to town | 
| santa claus is coming to town | 
| the kids in girl and boyland will have a jubilee | 
| they’re gonna build a toyland all around the christmas tree | 
| so 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 | 
| santa claus is coming to town | 
| santa claus is coming to town | 
| santa claus is coming to town |
