Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here comes Santa Claus
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
Hang up your stockings and say your prayers
'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)

Lyrics:

Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus Lane
Vixen and Blitzen
And all his reindeer
Pulling on the reins

Bells and ringing
Children singing
All is merry and bright
Hang up your stockings
And say your prayers
‘Cause Santa Claus is coming tonight
(Santa Claus is coming 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 bed,
Cover up your head
‘Cause Santa Claus is coming tonight
(Santa Claus is coming tonight)

(Santa Claus is coming tonight)

Here comes Santa Claus
Here comes Santa Claus
Right down Santa Claus Lane
He doesn’t care
If you’re a rich or poor
He loves you just the same

Santa knows that
We’re God’s children
That makes everything right
Fill your hearts
With Christmas cheer
‘Cause Santa is coming tonight
(Santa Claus is coming tonight)
