Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town

(album: Season's Greetings From Perry Como - 1959)

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

He's making a list an' checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty or 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!

So, you better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa claus is coming to town!

Say Perry
Somebody's ringing the front doorbell
Shall I answer it?
Oh, tell 'em to go away, Helen
We've got to decorate this Christmas tree!
Where do I connect the lights, Perry?
Artie, all you have to do is put the thing in a plug!
Say Perry, I can't find a train switch
Know where it is?
Bobby, the train switch is always
Where it's always been!
Hey Perry, what do ya want for Christmas?
Now wait a minute, where are you going?
Oh, I'm going out to give a few haircuts
You kids go ahead and sing
I'll be right back!

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

He's making a list an' checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty an' 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!

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

Santa Claus is coming
To town!
