Judy Collins - Santa Claus Is Coming To Town lyrics

I just got back from a lovely trip along the Milky Way I stopped off at the North Pole to spend a holiday I call on dear old Santa Claus to see what I could see He took me to his workshop and he told his plans to me So you better watch out, you better not cry You 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 better watch out, you better not cry You better not pout, I'm telling you why Santa Claus is coming to town Now Santa is a busy man, he's got no time to play He's got millions of stockings to fill on Christmas day You'd better write your letter now and send it right away Because he's getting ready with his reindeer and his sledge With little tin horns and little tin drums Rudy-toot-toots and rummy-tum-tums Santa Claus is coming to town And curly head dolls that tuddle and coo Elephants, boats and kiddie cars too Santa Claus is coming to town The kids in girl and boy land Will have a jubilee They're gonna build a toyland town 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 With little tin horns and little toy drums Rudy-toot-toots and rummy-tum-tums Santa Claus is coming to town And curly head dolls that tuddle and coo Elephants, boats and kiddie cars too 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
