Santa Claus Is Coming to Town Songtext
von Lena Horne

I Just came back from a lovely trip
Along the Milky Way
I call 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 comin', comin′ to town

Yes he's making a list, he's checking it twice
He′s gonna find out who′s naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin', 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


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

Charlie, old Santa′s 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 heaven′s sake

You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin′
Yes Mr. Santa Claus is coming
Oh, Santa Claus is coming to town

Have you done very good authority
In fact, I think it was Rudolph
The red-nosed reindeer who told me so
