Chorus:
Hey, the old man's back in town
He's spreadin' cheer around
He's come a long, long way
With his reindeer and his sleigh
He's bringing lots of toys
For all good girls and boys
So spread the news around
Yeah the old man's back in town
He's been waitin' all year long
Just to bring his gifts to you
All the elves and Mrs. Claus
Have been waitin' all year too
Now they're hookin' up his reindeer
And they're loadin' down his sleigh
So take my advice you best be nice
'Cause the old man's on his way
Repeat Chorus:
Now the mistletoe is hung
And the tree is all a glow
The carolers have sung
Every Christmas song they know
And the kids are all in bed now
With Santa on their mind
So the scene is set and you an bet
He'll show up anytime
Repeat Chorus:
Everybody gather 'round
'Cause the old man's back in town
