Lyrics

  1. 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 your stockings and say your prayers
    ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight
  2. 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 sleighbells jingle jangle
    What a beautiful sight
    Jump in bed, cover up your head
    ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight
  3. Here comes Santa Claus! Here comes Santa Claus
    Right down Santa Claus Lane
    He doesn’t care if you’re rich or poor
    For he loves you just the same
    Santa knows that we’re God’s children
    That makes everything right
    Fill your hearts with a Christmas cheer
    ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight
  4. Here comes Santa Claus! Here comes Santa Claus
    Right down Santa Claus Lane
    He’ll come around when the chimes ring out
    Then it’s Christmas morn again
    Peace on earth will come to all
    If we just follow the light
    Let’s give thanks to the Lord above
    ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight
