Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

You’d better watch out
You’d better not cry
You'd better not pout
I’m telling you why

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

He’s making a list
And checking it twice
Gonna find out who’s naughty and nice

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa 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 goodness sake

Oh, you’d better watch out
You’d better not cry
Better not pout
I’m telling you why

Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

Little tin horns
And little toy drums
Rooty-toot-toot
And rump-a-tum-tum
Curly-haired dolls
That tootle and coo
Elephants, boats and kiddie cars too

Oh! Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

One more time now..

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa Claus is comin' to town

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to... you
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's bringing lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is on the spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Though it has been said many times, many ways

Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
Merry Christmas (Merry Christmas)
Merry Christmas to... you

Here comes santa claus
Here comes santa claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Here comes santa claus
Here comes santa claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Up on the housetop, reindeer pause
Out jumps good old santa claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for everyone’s christmas joys

Tito had just one desire
That he gets a new guitar
But he wants a guarantee
That it won’t play out of key

Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick

(I said) ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick

Here comes santa claus
Here comes santa claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Here comes santa claus
Here comes santa claus
Here he comes, here he comes

Jackie’s almost six feet tall
But no hot shot at basketball
Bring him a basket three feet tall
Maybe he’ll play like a pro

Marlon wears his shoes so thin
He’s gone through his socks again
He’s always dancin’ as you know
(so bring me some shoes with lots of sole)

Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick

(I said) ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with old st. nick

Patter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter
Pitter patter pitter patter
Pitter patter patter

Oh dasher, dancer, prancer and vixen
Come on comet, cupid, donner and blixen
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!

Did you read santa claus my list?
All the girls you’re waiting to kiss?
Mike, that list was only a joke
Too late, jermaine, he’s bringing you mistletoe

But you just want toys and stuff
Yeah, but that’s not even half enough
What I want means more than fun
What’s that? - love and peace for everyone

Up on the house top reindeer stand
Waiting for that dear old man
Up to the chimney with gifts to spare
And lots of christmas joy to share

Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Up out through the chimney with old st. nick

Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Up through the chimney with old st. nick

Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Up through the chimney with old st. nick

Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Up through the chimney with old st. nick

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
and two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say
He was made of snow but the children
know how he came to life one day
There must have been some magic in that
old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
he began to dance around
O
Frosty the snowman
was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh
and play just the same as you and me
Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

Frosty the snowman knew
the sun was hot that day
So he said
"Let's run and
we'll have some fun
now before I melt away
" Down to the village
with a broomstick in his hand
Running here and there all
around the square saying
Catch me if you can
He led them down the streets of town
right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
he heard him holler "Stop!"
For Frosty the snow man
had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye saying
"Don't you cry
I'll be back again some day
" Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpetty thump thump
thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

Me and my drum.
