Santa Claus Came In The Spring
Benny Goodman & Joe Harris & Joe Harris Lyrics

I just came back from a lovely trip along the Milky Way
I have returned from a wonderful journey through the galaxy.

Stopped off at the North Pole to spend a holiday
I took a break at the North Pole for a vacation.

I called on dear old Santa Claus
I visited the beloved Santa Claus.

To see what I could see
To observe what I could observe.

He took me to his workshop
He led me to his work area.

And told his plans to me, so
And shared his strategies with me.

You better watch out, you better not cry
Be cautious and don't cry.

Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Avoid sulking, for I will inform you why.

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa is arriving in town.

He's making a list and checking it twice
He is compiling a register and double checking it.

Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
He will discover who has been both bad and good.

He sees you when you're sleepin'
He notices you while you slumber.

He knows when you're awake
He is aware when you are alert.

He knows if you've been bad or good
He recognizes if you've been ill-behaved or well-behaved.

So be good for goodness sake
So, for the sake of good, be good.

Oh! You better watch out, you better not cry
Oh! Be cautious and don't cry.

Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Avoid sulking, for I will inform you why.

Santa Claus is comin' to town
Santa is arriving in town.

With little tin horns and little toy drums
Including small tin horns and little toy drums.

Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Along with rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums.

And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Also, featuring curly-haired dolls that waddle and coo.

Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Additionally, consisting of elephants, boats, and children's cars.

Then kids in Girl and Boy land will have a jubilee
The children in Girls and Boys region will have a celebration.

They're gonna build a Toyland all around the Christmas tree
They are constructing a Toyland surrounding the Christmas tree.

Now Santa is a busy man, He has no time to play
Currently, Santa is a busy individual with no leisure time.

He's got millions of stockings to fill on Christmas day
He has numerous stockings to fill on Christmas day.

You'd better write your letter now
It would be prudent to scribe your letter now.

And mail it right away
And swiftly send it through the mail.

Because he's getting ready
Due to his preparations.

His reindeer's and his sleigh. So
As well as his reindeer and sleigh. So

With little tin horns and little toy drums
Including small tin horns and little toy drums.

Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Along with rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums.

And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Also, featuring curly-haired dolls that waddle and coo.
