Here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus Lane
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
Are pulling on the rein
Bells are ringing, children singing
All is merry and bright
'Cause Santa Claus is coming tonight (Santa Claus comes tonight)
Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus Lane
He's got a bag that is filled with toys
For the boys and girls again
Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle
What a beautiful sight
Jump in your bed, cover up your head
'Cause Santa Claus is coming tonight (Santa Claus comes tonight)
Here comes Santa Claus!
Here comes Santa Claus!
Right down Santa Claus Lane!
He doesn't care if you're rich or poor
He loves you just the same
Santa knows that you're God's children
That makes everything right
Fill your hearts with Christmas cheer
'Cause Santa is coming tonight (Santa Claus comes tonight)

@theoburgess6166
I remember when I finished for nursery (kindergarten) in 2007-2009 every December night I used to ask my mother to play this song. I never know why as it is such an unpopular song, but it’s always been special to me. I come back every year in Nov/Dec to listen to it and I just get instant nostalgia. I really celebrate Christmas like it’s my last Etc.

A great version of "Here Comes Santa Claus" you rarely hear nowadays, and that's unfortunate.
